This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

The CPC5608 is a 5-channel, low power transistor array integrated circuit featuring extremely low static current draw from power supply in a simple 2-state logic control input. It has two state ...

Last time on Circuit VR, we looked at creating a very simple common emitter amplifier, but we didn’t talk about how to select the capacitor values, or much about why we wanted them. We are going to ...

The chipmaker will shed light on a series of changes it's making to transistors that ideally will keep a lid on the growing problem of power consumption. Michael Kanellos is editor at large at CNET ...

Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal ...

While attending APEC 2019, it seemed that gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors were just coming into their own in high-volume applications, while silicon-carbide (SiC) transistors have found wide ...

A transistor is a tiny but powerful electronic component that acts like a switch or an amplifier. It is made from a semiconductor material, usually silicon, and has three legs for connection to ...

Over the past century, electronic engineering has improved massively. In the 1920s, a state-of-the-art AM radio contained several vacuum tubes, a few enormous inductors, capacitors and resistors, ...
