The fun part about logic gates is that there are so many ways to make them, with each approach having its own advantages and disadvantages. Although these days transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is the ...

Recall that a transistor is an electrically-controlled switch. Let’s explore that in a little more detail. We’ll look at simplified views of transistors which are at the heart of all logic and ...

From simple transistors to complex systems, this article explains the building blocks of digital logic design. Learn how these powerful components work in parallel to process information at incredible ...

Field-effect transistors based on carbon nanotubes have been shown to be faster and less energy consuming than their silicon counterparts. However, ensuring these advantages are maintained for ...

The fun part about logic gates is that there are so many ways to make them, with each approach having its own advantages and disadvantages. Although these days transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is the ...

The previous article examined the concept of logic gates. They can be made from discrete and active electronic components, although today logic gates are available within integrated circuits. In this ...

(I also posted this in Other Hardware, 'cause I didn't know where it would get the best response.)<BR><BR>I'm writing a review of some ideas that have been proposed for nano-scale computing ...

Electrical switch (MOSFET) is a three terminal device that can perform two states – ON and OFF. In the ON state the electrical switch is conducting, in the OFF state the electrical circuit is open.
