In recent years, electronics engineers have been trying to identify semiconducting materials that could substitute for ...

One of the great successes of 20th-century physics was the quantum mechanical description of solids. This allowed scientists to understand for the first time how and why certain materials conduct ...

Here we describe an electronic system that uses a dedicated water-level sensor to switch off the pump motor as soon as the ...

This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

In today’s information-driven society, there’s an ever-increasing preference to measure phenomena such as temperature, pressure, light, force, voltage and current. These measurements can be used in a ...

The ability to make a very miniature on/off switch changed the world. These tiny switches, known as transistors, make up the basis of all modern computing—they drive your cell phones, your bank ...

Git isn’t hard to learn. Moreover, with a Git GUI such as Atlassian’s Sourcetree, and a SaaS code repository such as Bitbucket, mastery of the industry’s most powerful version control tools is within ...

Dynaco hasn’t made equipment in decades. Yet it’s still a name most audiophiles know off-hand. That’s because the American manufacturer left an indelible legacy on the world of hi-fi, thanks in large ...

Shrinking silicon transistors have reached their physical limits, but a team from the University of Tokyo is rewriting the rules. They've created a cutting-edge transistor using gallium-doped indium ...
