There are two types of bi-directional transistor: The 650 and 850V devices are both normally-off monolithic gate-injection transistors with four operational modes via two separate gates and a ...

Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology is a vital part of modern electronics, used in designing and manufacturing integrated circuits (ICs) that power many digital devices. CMOS ...

STMicroelectronics is adding a broad range of devices to the STPOWER family of LDMOS transistors, which comprises three different product series optimised for RF power amplifiers (PAs) in a variety of ...

Only eight lithography masks to create a low-power custom logic chips, compared with 20+ for CMOS, is the claim of Nottingham-based fabless chip start-up ‘Search For The Next’ (SFN). As such, ...

To achieve the power, performance, and area (PPA) advantages dictated by Moore’s law, transistors have evolved substantially over the years. The development of planar transistors at Fairchild ...
