Diodes, logic gates and sensors can be built from metal nanoparticles coated with charged organic ligands. Nanoparticles have been used extensively as an electrode material 7,8, but are generally poor ...

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 gates, ...

The circuit above is a 3−input Diode−Transistor Logic (DTL) gate. Write the truth table for the input combinations of 0 V and 5 V with respect to the ground. Which type of logic gate does this circuit ...

Researchers have invented a new organic polymer tunnel diode -- an electronic component that could one day lead to plastic computer memory and plastic logic circuits on computer chips. Today, computer ...

Before the era of large-scale integration (LSI) semiconductor circuits, discrete logic circuits using the common diode-transistor logic (DTL) were still necessary and available in a format that was ...

Abstract: Two tunnel-diode logic circuits are discussed giving "AND-OR" or "NOR" operation. Germanium coupling diodes are used to provide unilateral propagation with large fan-in, and a diode gate, ...

Fig 1. A typical CMOS input circuit comprises a “P” and “N” transistor. One is fully “on” for logic high, and the other is “on” for a logic low. Fig 2. When a CMOS input pin is at logic high or low ...

External TVS diodes can be used to supplement the internal clamping diodes of ICs. Surge ability of silicon TVS diodes are related to size. External TVS diodes can be 10x larger than internal clamping ...

In the realm of electronics, varicap diodes, also known as voltage-variable capacitors or varactors, play a pivotal role. These devices exhibit a capacitance that varies with the applied voltage, ...

Abstract: A three-terminal network consisting of two matched tunnel diodes and a fixed resistor is introduced as a basic element for performing peak threshold summation logic. The characteristic ...
