You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...

An integrated circuit (IC), also known as a microchip or chip, is a miniaturized electronic circuit consisting of transistors, resistors, capacitors, and other components fabricated onto a single ...

In the early digital era, logic gates were made exclusively of transistors and discrete components. The obvious occupation of a large space and increased heat dissipation pushed technology to ...

Optical IC-based lab-on-a-chip biosensors deliver crucial real-time and reliable results essential for medical diagnostics. Image Credit: Shanghai Optics As continued research and development in the ...

What Is A Hybrid Integrated Circuit? A hybrid integrated circuit (HIC) or a hybrid microcircuit, is a miniaturised electronic circuit that combines different electronic components on a single platform ...

Underlying concepts of switched-capacitor circuits. IoT power management using a resonant switched-capacitor dc-dc converter or ultra-low-power switched-capacitor voltage regulators. For Part 2, go ...

Over six decades of integrated circuit production we’ve become used to their extreme reliability and performance for a very reasonable price. But what about those first integrated circuits from the ...

As the scale of integrated circuits (ICs) continues to shrink, the lack of practical methods for imaging their complex internal structure has hampered feedback for quality control and product ...

Years ago, Tektronix could not justify an expensive, high-performance semiconductor operation solely for producing competition-defeating ICs for oscilloscopes, and formed a joint venture with Maxim ...
