With war in Iran on hold, the world's largest industrial trade fair opens in Hannover. And Brazil, this year's partner country, is pulling out all stops to convince visitors it's a reliable technology ...

The transistor is one of the most important components in electronics. By switching or amplifying electrical signals, transistors make sure that our smartphones, computers and even coffee machines do ...

A new generation of energy-efficient transistors is now being developed based on thin, lightweight, electrically conducting films. Imagine miniature actuators with their own built-in sensing ...

Nvidia Corp. today announced a new flagship graphics processing unit, Rubin, that provides five times the inference performance of Blackwell. The GPU made its debut at CES alongside five other data ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become the workload that defines today’s semiconductor scaling. Whether in hyperscale data centers training foundation models or at the network edge executing ...

It’s rather amazing how many electronic components you can buy right now are not quite the genuine parts that they are sold as. Outside of dedicated platforms like Mouser, Digikey and LCSC you pretty ...

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 ...

When one thinks of portable consumer electronics that are now largely obsolete, portable CD players, minidisc players, and portable cassette tape players are products that immediately come to mind.
