Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

ThermalTrak integrates power output transistors with thermal bias diode. One of the major design concerns in the output section of a typical class AB audio amplifier is output bias and stability over ...

The smaller electronic components become, the more complex their manufacture becomes. This has been a major problem for the ...

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this ...

The most recent installment of [Dino Segovis’] Hack a Week covers the construction of a simple NPN transistor audio preamp. Some time ago, he built a small audio amplifier using an LM386 which worked ...

The transistor has been around since the nineteen forties. In fact, the FET (Field Effect Transistor) was actually developed before the more common bipolar type. Bipolar transistors use semiconductor ...

MIT engineers built a magnetic transistor from chromium sulfur bromide, promising smaller, faster electronics with built-in ...
