The technological payoffs of future transistors that operate at a trillion cycles per second, or terahertz (THz), could include improved surveillance systems for detecting concealed weapons, more ...

A GDSII layout viewer from Micro Magic Inc. claims to provide instantaneous viewing at any zoom level of chips with up to 1 trillion transistors. And the price is right — through June 2008, it's free ...

How the first transistor evolved to meet new and emerging application demands as underlying structures transform and multi-die systems gained further adoption. How transistors have enabled the ...

Spirea AB is a Swedish fabless semiconductor company developing highly integrated low-power, low-cost radio solutions for the Wireless LAN and PAN markets. This article describes how we assembled a ...

IBM and Samsung have announced their latest advance in semiconductor design: a new way to stack transistors vertically on a chip (instead of lying flat on the surface of the semiconductor). The new ...

Characteristics of enhancement-mode (e-mode) GaN, such as positive temperature coefficient of RDS(ON) and a temperature-independent threshold voltage, make them excellent candidates for paralleling.
