The most widely used integrated circuit (IC) technology. Although the term CMOS "transistor" is widely used, it is somewhat misleading because in order to reduce power consumption, CMOS is actually ...

Designers of electronics and communications systems are constantly faced with the challenge of integrating greater functionality on less silicon area. Many of the system blocks – such as power ...

A schematic diagram is not a detailed blueprint of an analog circuit; instead, it’s more like architectural sketch of the circuit. Look at any schematic for a CMOS analog IC circuit and you will see ...

A laboratory at Purdue University provided a critical part of the world's first transistor in 1947 – the purified germanium semiconductor – and now researchers here are on the forefront of a new ...
