Just as the common emitter amplifier and common base amplifier each tied those respective transistor terminals to a fixed potential and used the other two terminals as amplifier input and output ...

Because the emitter is grounded, even if sometimes via a resistor, this transistor configuration is referred to as a Common Emitter amplifier. In this circuit if you were to start with the ...

Now, he’s tackling a new frontier: sixth-generation wireless communication, also known as 6G.

(Transistors at this level would be solely used as switches for binary coding, not as amplifiers.) In fact, such a tiny device might make use of the quantum weirdness of the ultra-small.

The first transistor was about half an inch high ... This contraption was the very first semiconductor amplifier, because when a bit of current came through one of the gold contacts, another ...

In order to develop the necessary technology, the project Magellan—High Efficiency mm-Wave GaN Transistor High Power Amplifier for GEO and LEO Active Antenna Application—was launched in 2024.

Quantum mechanics, first considered in the early 1900’s, and formalized by 1925, opened a fundamentally new view for western physics.  The world is whole, not a collection of parts. The ...

The gate is how a transistor controls the flow of current between the source and drain terminals and can act as both a switch and amplifier. Wrapping this gate around all sides of a source (or ...
