Atomic-scale imperfections in graphene transistors generate unique wireless fingerprints that cannot be copied or predicted, ...

Emerging two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are among the most promising materials for ultra-scaled transistors due to their intrinsic atomic-level thickness. As the stacking process advances, the ...

A Planet Analog article, “2N3904: Why use a 60-year-old transistor?” by Bill Schweber, inspired some interest in this old transistor and how it’s commonly used, and if any uncommon uses might exist.

Most of us know that a quartz clock uses a higher frequency crystal oscillator and a chain of divider circuits to generate a 1 Hz pulse train. It’s usual to have a 32.768 kHz crystal and a 15-stage ...

If you’ve worked with germanium transistors, you’ll know that many of them have a disappointingly low maximum frequency of operation. This has more to do with some of the popular ones dating from the ...

Abstract: This study introduces a cross field-effect transistor (CrossFET) design, which features two orthogonally crossed transistors: an n-channel field-effect transistor (NFET) and a p-channel ...

Sensors monitoring mechanical and biological systems must often scavenge power from the thing being sensed. The oscillator circuits shown here let you operate those sensors. Sensor circuits that ...

A new technical paper titled “Impact of Strain on Sub-3 nm Gate-all-Around CMOS Logic Circuit Performance Using a Neural Compact Modeling Approach” was published by researchers at Hanyang University ...

Chaotic circuits can arise from either computed (using Analog Computers or Digital Computers) solutions to coupled differential equations or from unstable systems/circuits. A new open-source circuit ...

Oscillators, is there anything they can’t do? Well, of course there are. But what they can do – especially in space as part of a satellite system – is pretty cool. Oscillators are mechanical or ...
