This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. The spread of h FE values in a batch of transistors may be wide enough to cause unreliable performance during mass production of a ...

EVANSTON, Ill. — Transistors based on a new kind of material created by Northwestern University researchers have been lifted into outer space on the space shuttle Endeavour and attached to the outside ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Researchers at Purdue University have created a "unified model" for predicting the reliability of new designs for silicon transistors – a potential tool that industry could use ...

Why might you need semiconductor system-level test (SLT)? As Karthik Ranganathan, director for semiconductor solutions at Astronics Test Systems, points out, if you test a 22-nm, ...

SAN FRANCISCO &#151 Researchers from the Israel Institute of Technology have developed what the university claims is a “transistor in a test tube”, built via sequence-specific molecular lithography.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A computer chip processes and stores information using two different devices. If engineers could combine these devices into one or put them next to each other, then there would ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backward” but ...

Although substantial improvements have been made to ATE in the last decade, the changes haven't come close to matching the enormous increases in device complexity. The cost to fabricate a transistor ...

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