Logic gates are implemented using diodes or transistors acting as electronic switches; most gates are made from field-effect transistors (FETs), particularly metal–oxide–semiconductor field ...

Eventually, silicon arrived, and vacuum tube logic was replaced with diode and transistor logic. This represented a dramatic increase in speed and a great reduction in size and power consumption.

A flip-flop is one of the most basic digital electronic circuits. It can most easily be built from just two transistors, although they can and have been built out of vacuum tubes, NAND and NOR ...

Atomtronic Circuits of Diodes and Transistors in Physic Review Letters From Physorg: Atomtronics probably won’t replace electronics. “Atoms are sluggish compared to electrons, and that means that you ...

Philco is expected to be in production shortly on preliminary transistor-diode logic packs. Sperry Semiconductor Div. is in pilot production on NOR circuits in TO-5 cases.

Scientists have succeeded in developing logic circuits equipped with diamond-based MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors) at two different operation modes. This achievement ...

This is precisely the frontier being explored through quantum thermal transistors, devices designed to replicate electronic transistor functionality at the quantum scale, but for heat.

At the core of every computer, smartphone, and digital device lies the transistor, a tiny but powerful component that is crucial for processing data and performing mathematical operations. But how ...

Here’s a blast from the past as we reprint our news from NYC’s 1961 IRE show—the first integrated logic circuits in TO-5 and TO-18 cans are being announced.
