Every few years, we hear about someone building a computer from first principles. This doesn’t mean getting a 6502 or Z80, wiring it up, and running BASIC. I’m talking about builds from the ground up, ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in a circuit – but not if the transistor “type” is undetectable. Purdue University ...

Researchers at IBM's T.J. Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, N.Y., have created the world's first logic-performing computer circuit within a single molecule. Such circuits may someday lead to ...

Researchers at PARC and Thinfilm Electronics have finally managed to print -- as in, using a printer that is similar to the one attached to your computer -- a computer circuit consisting of ...

Transistors are inevitable parts of Electronic circuits. The success of a circuit design lies in the selection of proper transistor type and calculation of voltage and current flowing through it. A ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, ...

In the comment section of my last article, there was some great discussion about drawing schematic symbols. It is important you make your schematic symbols understandable. Sometimes, the pre-packaged ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in a circuit - but not if the transistor "type" is undetectable. Purdue University ...

Engineers propose a built-in security measure that would better protect computer chip hardware from hackers. A hacker can reproduce a circuit on a chip by discovering what key transistors are doing in ...
