Need to switch something on or off using a microcontroller? Using a transistor is one of the best ways to do this, but how exactly do you design properly for transistor switching? [Ben Krasnow] put ...

Editor's Note: The following tutorial is one of a series of six on transistor theory by Howard Skolnik, retired Burr-Brown designer. In Part 1 of this series we explored the terminal impedances of a ...

Field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotubes have been shown to be faster and less energy consuming than their silicon counterparts. However, ensuring these advantages are maintained for ...

If the resistor and capacitor values in your circuit are not properly calculated, then the output may be distorted and the amplitude may vary with time. If the resistor and capacitor values in your ...

Controlling LEDs is really quite simple. As you know, they need to be current limited which is as easy as applying Ohm’s law to your given set of values. To make things even more even there’s a slew ...

Transistors are tiny electronic components that act as switches and amplifiers, and they dwell at the heart of modern technology. In simple terms, a transistor can turn a flow of electricity on or off ...

TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Transistors based on carbon rather than silicon could potentially boost computers’ speed and cut their power consumption more than a thousandfold but the set of tools needed to build ...

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