The often-quoted Moore 's Law says that we can expect processors to double in capacity every 18 months. And that has held true. Now computer scientists warn that - without some significant ...

Figure 1a shows a latching circuit based on an optocoupler, IC 1. If the off switch remains closed, pressing the on switch powers the LED in the optocoupler. Thus, the transistor in IC 1 turns on. You ...

Yesterday morning I ran across what sounded like an interesting story from Hewlett-Packard’s labs that seemed to involve a possible transistor replacement, nanotechnology, and the indefinite ...

With a recent breakthrough in making circuits with molecules, Hewlett-Packard hopes to change chip history and expand its own role in the process. Researchers from the Palo Alto, Calif.-based ...

Hewlett-Packard’s researchers have proven that a technology the company invented could eventually replace the transistor, a fundamental building block of electronics. In a paper published in the ...
