Over on his YouTube channel [Aaron Danner] explains biasing transistors with current sources in the 29th video of his Transistors Series. In this video, he shows how to replace a bias resistor ...

While most transistors require 60 millivolts for a decade of change in current, this new device operates at 29 millivolts. It’s able to do this because the unique physical properties of graphene keep ...

D transistor offering 40% faster speeds and lower energy use may soon disrupt the global chip market - if China can ...

When you connect the gate to the source of a JFET (junction field-effect transistor), it becomes a two-terminal current source. The current that will flow is called IDSS (current, drain-to-source ...

At an event today in San Francisco, Intel announced one of the most important pieces of semiconductor news in many years: the company's upcoming 22nm processors will feature a fundamental change ...

The exterior layers of the transistor are known as the "drain" and "source," with the central layer being referred to as the "gate". The function of the transistor is to utilize the voltage applied to ...

The germanium itself sat on a metal plate attached to a voltage source ... and it's a crucial part of a transistor. In the presence of this junction, current can start to flow from one side ...

To get a functioning transistor, however ... The wires for the current source and drain were made of nickel. Unfortunately, two of these materials—MoS 2 and carbon nanotubes—are extremely ...

and the transistor would remain a diode with two cathode terminals. If however you give the gate a negative bias compared to the source, the diode becomes reverse-biased, and no current to speak ...
