In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object ...

200 x 200 mm) Everyone of the ~42,300 transistors were hand-soldered to one of the massive PCBs, which look more like interactive circuit diagrams than actual circuit boards. This incredible ...

Transistors had become commonplace in everything ... That spring, Fairchild began a push to build what they called "unitary circuits" and they also applied for a patent on the idea.

Explains the principles of transistor switching circuits, highlighting their role in electronic computers. It contrasts transistors with vacuum tubes, emphasizing that transistors function as ...

The mosfet is off if the input voltage is normally less than \(2.0 V\). By looking at a circuit diagram of a transistor switching circuit, you should be able to say what the circuit is used for ...
