A friend recently sent me an email noting that the classic 2N3904 bipolar transistor was now 60 years old. Since its “birth” ...

Some people hear the term "bipolar disorder" and think it means sudden mood swings. They're partly right. It's true that people with bipolar disorder go through periods of high energy, and also ...

Abstract: Half-bridge insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules are widely used in power electronic devices, and the high-speed switching of IGBTs in the modules can cause serious ...

Super-junction transistors bypass this limit, and bipolar transistor are not subject to it, but both require p-type semiconductor layers in otherwise n-type unipolar devices. To create p-type SiC, it ...

GaN Systems will speak of lateral GaN power transistors in automotive appliations at PCIM next week. The paper ‘Lateral GaN transistors – A replacement for IGBT devices in automotive applications’ ...

Need to switch something on or off using a microcontroller? Using a transistor is one of the best ways to do this, but how exactly do you design properly for transistor switching? [Ben Krasnow ...
