Your design task, should you decide to accept it: given an input voltage, square it. Ok, that’s too hard since squaring 8 volts would give you 64 volts, so let’s say the output should be 10% of the ...

This application note describes the basic characteristics and operating performance of IGBTs. It is intended to give the reader a thorough background on the device technology behind IXYS IGBTs. The ...

Organic bipolar transistors can also handle demanding data processing and transmission tasks on flexible electronic elements - for example here, for electrocardiogram ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, ...

Although most people aren’t aware of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), they do enjoy their benefits. From air conditioners to electric cars to stereo amplifiers, the modern world relies on ...

The invention of the transistor in 1947 by Shockley, Bardeen and Brattain at Bell Laboratories ushered in the age of microelectronics and revolutionized our lives. First, so-called bipolar transistors ...

How many remote controls do you have in your home? Don’t you wish all these things were better integrated somehow, or that you could add remote control functionality to a random device? It’s a common ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...

The first transistor was successfully demonstrated at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, in 1947. This three-terminal device has spawned many of the electronics devices that make possible ...

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the first ...
