A previous Design Idea describes a circuit that uses an astable multivibrator to drive an LED (Reference 1). The circuit in Figure 1 uses a simpler alternative approach. The circuit uses a 2N3904 NPN ...

This compact guide to the simplest of chaotic circuits and how to build them also serves as a broad overview of the field of chaos, particularly in electronics.

Lesson 4 Using Transistors: Let’s Get Transistorized! Overview In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. Objectives • To observe how a transistor functions in a ...

Simple Electronics was part of the imprint’s Learnabout series, and it took the basic premise of its predecessor away from the realm of radio into other transistor circuits.

Field-effect transistors fabricated from carbon nanotubes have been investigated extensively over the past two decades. This study demonstrates a nanotube-based integrated circuit design that ...

Texas Instruments presented a new transistor that may make onboard chargers and DC/DC converters 50 percent smaller: GaN FETs.
