Texas Instruments—known for calculators—was actually behind some of the biggest breakthroughs in tech history. From inventing ...

Field-effect transistors fabricated from carbon nanotubes have been investigated extensively over the past two decades. This study demonstrates a nanotube-based integrated circuit design that ...

The HomeCMOS team has yet to actually make an integrated circuit or MEMS device, [Jeri Ellsworth] has shown this is possible by making transistors and integrated circuits at home.

As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...

The First Integrated Circuit Demonstrated by TI in September 1958, this half-inch wide, archaic-looking collection of transistor, capacitor and two resistors mounted on a bar of germanium was the ...

The humble transistor and its descendant, ... In 1958, Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments built the first integrated circuit, which combined a number of transistors on a silicon chip ...

Their approach, outlined in a paper published in Nature Electronics, enables the scalable and reconfigurable assembly of self-healing and stretchable transistors into highly performing integrated ...

Now, Phaedon Avouris and colleagues at IBM’s T J Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights, New York, may have overcome this problem with their new integrated circuit that consists of a graphene ...

[Kevin Darrah] wanted to make a simple 3.3V regulator without using an integrated circuit. He wound up using two common NPN transistors and 4 1K resistors. The circuit isn’t going to beat out… ...

This era of integrated circuits, especially microprocessors, ushered in the third generation of computing. And the Intel 4004 was just the start. CPU transistor count exploded.
