What is a power MOSFET? We all know how to use a diode to implement a switch. But we can only switch with it, not gradually control the signal flow. Furthermore, a diode acts as a switch depending on ...

Metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) see common use in applications ranging from the very small (like CPU transistors) to very large (power) switching applications. Although ...

The key electronic component in the integrated circuit (IC) is the planar, bulk metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). A key driver for the IC industry has been Moore's Law, which ...

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 ...

The first transistor was successfully demonstrated at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, in 1947. This three-terminal device has spawned many of the electronics devices that make possible ...
