Like the DEC PDP-8, this is a 12-bit machine, but instead of the diode-transistor logic of the DEC, the substantially smaller Q2 uses a simple NMOS approach.

News from the American Physical Society: programming organic transistors with light; the unusual origin of peacock brown; and rotating nanowires.

Specifically, the research program will explore three critical areas in materials science and device design for the DRAM community: the transistor to be used in the periphery of the memory chip, the ...

Sections on the silicon controlled rectifier, power supplies, transistor and rectifier specifications have been expanded. Here is a work you'll find yourself turning to time and again.

Shrinking silicon transistors have reached their physical limits, but a team from the University of Tokyo is rewriting the rules. They've created a cutting-edge transistor using gallium-doped ...

They were the first company to produce silicon transistors -- and consequently the first company to produce a truly consistent mass-produced transistor.

For any given processor it’s generally easy to find a statistic on the number of transistors used to construct it, with the famous Intel 8086 CPU generally said to contain 29,000 transistors.… ...

So What Was the Transistor Good For? Transistors may have been useful to the phone company and to a handful of scientists building computers, but that wasn't enough to build an industry. Companies ...
