A Boolean Algebra operation can be related with an electronic circuit in which the inputs and outputs corresponds to the statements of Boolean algebra. Though these circuits may be complicated, they ...

The first CMOS chip was created by Fairchild Semiconductor, presented at ISSCC in 1963. The logic topologies used in today’s textbooks originated in this work. P-type devices are slower than N-type by ...

Graphene is a single-atom thick carbon crystal with unique properties beneficial for electronics including extremely high electron mobility and phonon thermal conductivity. However, graphene does not ...

In recent years, gallium nitride (GaN) has emerged as a compelling candidate to complement the silicon material used in wireless communication and power conversion applications. Benefits of GaN ...

Since 1972, scientists have known there are four basic circuit components, but if you’ve spent any time in an electrical engineering classroom, you probably only have experience with three: capacitor, ...

Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology has dominated the solid-state electronics industry for nearly half a century. Engineers in this field are used to dealing with skepticism over ...
