However, by adding a transistor as an active element, all other gates can be implemented. The three input, diode-only AND gate is shown in the picture above.

Back in the late 1960's, I experimented with DTL. That's not a misprint. DTL stands for diode-transistor logic and it was popular in “930-series” logic devices. I used wire-wrap or point-to-point ...

If you ever work with a circuit that controls a decent amount of current, you will often encounter a FET – a Field-Effect Transistor. Whether you want to control a couple of powerful LEDs, sw… ...

The transistor turnson, and the logic-zero voltage at thecollector is approximately 0.6+V L +V CE ,where V L is the low voltage and V CE is the collector-to-emitter voltage.When inputs A and B are at ...

Here’s a blast from the past as we reprint our news from NYC’s 1961 IRE show—the first integrated logic circuits in TO-5 and TO-18 cans are being announced.

‘Commenting upon the apparently universal adoption of ferrite-core storage and transistor-based logic in contemporary computers, the science correspondent of a Sunday newspaper recently concluded that ...
