The chances are that many of you will have made an FM “bug” style transmitter, a simple one-transistor oscillator usually driven by a small electret microphone. It’s also relatively straightforward to ...

LONDON — A series of functional 25-stage ring oscillators has been made by a team of researchers from the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center using silicon nanowire transistors with diameters down to ...

Two tuners were developed for this receiver. The more sensitive one uses tetrode transistors in the RF amplifier, mixer and oscillator. Its disadvantages lie in a much higher cost and a 12 to 14 db ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...
