The global electronics supply chain faces a growing challenge from counterfeit and recycled components, which can compromise system reliability and user safety. Recent technological innovations ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The formal name of the chip. An integrated circuit (IC) combines thousands, millions or billions of transistors on a single substrate. A certain number of resistors and capacitors may also reside on ...

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 ...

The secrets of the tiniest active structures in integrated circuits can be revealed using a non-destructive imaging technique, scientists show. New research has demonstrated that the secrets of the ...

IBM, following up from its manufacture of a transistor made out of graphene, has created an entire monolithic integrated circuit using fairly conventional electron beam lithography. The circuit is a ...

Forming circuits involves the use of cylindrical pieces of semiconductor material. These cylinders are sliced into thin, circular pieces known as bare wafers. The bare wafers are then oxidized before ...

The tech industry thrives on legends. Here’s a good one. It’s 1958, and Texas Instruments stands deserted. Everyone at the Dallas-based company traditionally takes two weeks of vacation in July, ...

The ITC series integrates the major components found in a typical Data Access Arrangement (DAA), in a 16 lead SOIC package. As highlighted in Figure 1, the 1-Form-A MOSFET SSR, Darlington transistor, ...
