The use of transistors for switching things ON and OFF is a key feature of proper hacking. The ability for bipolar transistors to turn things ON and OFF is one of the less known uses while transistors ...

'Organic' Circuit Runs on Body Chemicals Researchers have created a simple circuit using transistors that run on the chemicals that control living processes, rather than the electrons that usual ...

Transistors, the tiny switches that flip on and off inside computer chips, have long been the domain of electricity. But scientists are beginning to develop chip components that run on light. Last ...

OK, so I have an old project laptop with an IDE/PATA/slim-ATAPI optical drive bay, into which I have inserted a SATA drive caddy with a bridge board. The thing is, the caddy doesn't transfer the drive ...

Switching has almost always meant “hard" switching, which is simple but comes with all kinds of electrical and thermal ...
