Tony Goacher] has worked with a lot of cheap brushless DC motor controllers built in China. They can be very cost-effective, ...

I live and work in New York, where it can be brutally hot in summer. Although I have a window air conditioner in my upstairs living room at home, I don’t have any such cooling products in my basement ...

Transistors in some circuit configurations work together and, frequently, need to be matched. This is so common that you can sometimes find ICs that are just a pair of transistors made with the same ...

The ability to make a very miniature on/off switch changed the world. These tiny switches, known as transistors, make up the basis of all modern computing—they drive your cell phones, your bank ...

In hot weather like the kind we’ve seen this summer, fans are everywhere: They’re inexpensive tools that help us feel better in the heat. The key word here is “feel.” In temperatures of around 90 ...

On a late July morning, the sun is already broiling the National Mall in Washington, D.C. The air is so humid, even a loose shirt quickly turns into a sticky mess. Later, the heat index will top out ...

Shrinking silicon transistors have reached their physical limits, but a team from the University of Tokyo is rewriting the rules. They've created a cutting-edge transistor using gallium-doped indium ...

In a significant advancement for semiconductor technology, researchers at UC Santa Barbara have unveiled novel three-dimensional (3D) transistors utilizing two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. Their ...

For decades, the semiconductor industry has been laser-focused on shrinking silicon transistors, but Peking University researchers believe the future might lie in changing materials entirely. In a ...

The two New York Yankees fans who were ejected from Game 4 on Tuesday night for interfering with Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts won't be back in their seats down the right field line for ...
