Monostable Multivibrator using Transistors

Ligo George — Sun, 16 Aug 2015 14:33:13 +0000

Multivibrator is a non linear oscillator or function generator which can generate square, rectangular and pulse waves. Monostable Multivibrator or One-Shot Multivibrator has only one stable state. By default monostable multivibrator will be in its stable state, but when triggered it will switch to unstable state (quasi-stable state) for a time period determined by the RC time constant […]

Vacuum Tubes Reloads…. Vacuum Tubes are used in computing, switching, amplification and rectification right up to 60s. Then it died a quick death since most applications solid state device such as semiconductor devices have replaced them. We all know that Semiconductor devices are small in size and cheaper than vacuum tube devices. Silicon transistors are cheaper but […]

Optical Transistors Out of Silicon : Significant step towards Optical Computing

Ligo George — Fri, 04 May 2012 15:35:09 +0000

We all know that electrons are good at processing information, but they are incapable of carrying information over long distances. On the other hand, Photons can carry information all around the planet but their processing is hectic. So we use electrons for processing and photons for long distance data transmission. Thus we need significant amount of […]

More Energy Efficient Transistors through Quantum Tunneling

Ligo George — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 13:59:16 +0000

Researchers at the University of Notre Dame and Pennsylvania State University had announced that they had developed Tunneling Field Effect Transistor (TFET), which takes the advantage of a peculiar behaviour of electrons at quantum level. We know that transistors are the basic building block of electronic devices that power this digital world. The growth of computing […]

Graphene Transistors to Replace Silicon

Ligo George — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 02:33:56 +0000

Researchers at Manchester University makes a new footprint in the field of transistors. They developed a technique for improving the ON-OFF ratio of Graphene transistors. The newly developed Graphene transistors might replace silicon in computer chips. The main benefit of using Graphene for making transistors is that, we can scale down size of transistors to 10-15 atom across. Thus […]

Intel revels that they had developed P-Channel Germanium Transistors,it is combined with complementary III-V N-channel transistors and forms CMOS architecture. Germanium was found to be limited due to greater current leakage, for many years. Now the focus on germanium is due to the fact that, Germanium is more mobile than Silicon. For more than a decade, the extensive use of […]

SPINTRONICS BASED DEVICES TO REPLACE TRANSISTOR TECHNOLOGY IN NEAR FUTURE

albzzz — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 13:47:37 +0000

One of the basic element in every electronic device is the transistor. Decades old technology. Finally the Scientists of Cambridge are on their way to an alternative. Spintronics which relies on the magnetic moment or the spin of an electron could revolutionise the enitre electronics field.Much of its benefit goes to computing since it can […]
