Engineers propose a built-in security measure that would better protect computer chip hardware from hackers. A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in ...

This year's chart contains specifications for 1714 transistor types; last year, 1088 types were submitted for publication by semiconductor makers. With close to a 60% increase in the number of ...

Transistors are a kind of switch and can be applied to as many electronic equipments. In this post, we are going to give small idea about transistor types, different types of modes and different kinds ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in a circuit - but not if the transistor "type" is undetectable. Purdue University ...

New transistor types, plus issues with masks, patterning, materials, process control and interconnects, add up to a very tough transition. At a recent event, Intel presented a paper that generated ...

These prototype processors made from atomically thin materials offer a glimpse into a post-silicon-transistor future, but scaling challenges remain. Read the paper: A complementary two-dimensional ...

While LDMOS power devices are going to low-cost plastic packages, GaAs HBTs are migrating to larger wafers to cut cost.

When I was in undergrad not so long ago, all my circuits and semiconductor textbooks/professors were talking about MOSFETs (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) that were just “better” ...
