Abstract: What can be simpler than designing with CMOS and BiCMOS? These technologies are very easy to use but they still require careful design. This tutorial discusses the odd case of circuits that ...

Some people can’t be bothered to read the analog face of a traditional clock. Some people cannot stand the low frequency “hum” of mains current. If you are in either of those categories, you probably ...

Low power design has become a cornerstone of modern integrated circuit development, driven by energy efficiency demands and the challenges of scaling in nanometre technologies. Innovations in ...

Seldom does discrete logic make waves, but Toshiba Corp. is stirring up controversy with a claim that it will use CMOS technology to perform high-drive backplane functions that previously were only ...

Scientists at the Tokyo Institute of Technology have developed low power, high performance CMOS logic technology that is vital to the future of microprocessors and system-on-chip (SoC) devices for ...

Why it matters: Faster and more energy-efficient computing is becoming harder to develop. Fortunately, chip researchers are looking well beyond current technologies and have prototypes that will ...

Some people can’t be bothered to read the analog face of a traditional clock. Some people cannot stand the low frequency “hum” of mains current. If you are in either of those categories, you probably ...

The developers detailed their achievement in a conference paper “A 3.19pJ/bit Electro-Optical Router with 18ns Setup Frame-Level Routing and 1-6 Wavelength Flexible Link Capacity for Photonic ...

The transistor, an invention that heralded a new era in electronics, is the key component of practically all integrated circuits (ICs) and microprocessors. The point-contact transistor that Walter H.

Fig 1. A typical CMOS input circuit comprises a “P” and “N” transistor. One is fully “on” for logic high, and the other is “on” for a logic low. Fig 2. When a CMOS input pin is at logic high or low ...
