In the early digital era, logic gates were made exclusively of transistors and discrete components. The obvious occupation of a large space and increased heat dissipation pushed technology to ...

You’re probably familiar with the little black boxes nestled neatly inside your favorite devices. With their diminutive size and unassuming characteristics, it can be hard to believe these vessels are ...

This news release is available in German. Electrical engineers at the Technische Universität München (TUM) have demonstrated a new kind of building block for digital integrated circuits. Their ...

Display Driver Integrated Circuits (DDICs) serve as a critical nexus between image processing units and visual display devices, including LCDs, OLEDs and other emerging panel technologies. These ...

The newly developed logic circuits are equipped with diamond-based MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors), and they have two different operation modes. The different modes are a ...

Different challenges have to be overcome when designing integrated circuits. Besides schematic and layout design work, verification in view of the non-ideal behavior of circuits and semiconductor ...

As we have observed in previous parts of this course, in a digital system, signals can take on only two values: high or low. These values are often represented by two voltage levels. The most used ...

Analog circuit design guidelines. Digital circuit design guidelines. Differences in the guidelines between the two. Several products in the electronics industry require both analog and digital printed ...
