Power supply maker Recom has introduced a universal half-bridge development board and reference design. It is “a design that can be used to compare the real-life performance of various high power IGBT ...

The microelectronics revolution might best be characterized by the motto 'smaller is better'. A unique attribute of the silicon metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), the ...

Silicon's crown is under threat: The semiconductor's days as the king of microchips for computers and smart devices could be numbered, thanks to the development of the smallest transistor ever to be ...

In recent years, MOSFETs have benefited from huge investments in technology and promotion alike, overshadowing bipolar devices to the degree that many designers view bipolars as old technology.

The holiday gave me a chance to play with bipolar transistor mosfet drivers again. And things did not go quite as planned. I had been using the circuit on the right quite happily from a signal ...

The classic metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) is the workhorse of the microelectronics industry. MOSFETs are the building blocks of microprocessors, memory chips and ...

There are many types of switch-mode power supply (SMPS) transistors to choose from today. Two of the more popular versions are the metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) and the ...

Sponsored by: Texas Instruments Even though gallium-nitride transistors are becoming a more popular solution in terms of power switching, the venerable MOSFET still can be used effectively in current ...
