Download this article in PDF format. When you connect the gate to the source of a JFET (junction field-effect transistor), it becomes a two-terminal current source. The current that will flow is ...

The transistor has been around since the nineteen forties. In fact, the FET (Field Effect Transistor) was actually developed before the more common bipolar type. Bipolar transistors use semiconductor ...

CMOS opened the door for many if not most of the properties needed for today’s highly integrated circuits and low power portable and mobile devices. This really couldn’t happen until the speeds and ...

The Junction Field Effect Transistors (JFET) has a channel consisting of N-type semiconductor or P-type semiconductor material and the gate is made of the opposite semiconductor type. The junction FET ...

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--onsemi (Nasdaq: ON) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the Silicon Carbide Junction Field-Effect Transistor (SiC JFET) technology ...

If you ever work with a circuit that controls a decent amount of current, you will often encounter a FET – a Field-Effect Transistor. Whether you want to control a couple of powerful LEDs, switch a ...

On Semiconductor ON recently announced its agreement to acquire the Silicon Carbide Junction Field-Effect Transistor (SiC JFET) technology business, including the United Silicon Carbide subsidiary, ...

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the first ...

Advanced Micro Devices has created new high-performance transistors in its labs based on the simple concept that sometimes two are better than one. The chipmaker said Tuesday it has manufactured in ...

Toshiba has brought out transistor arrays with a DMOS FET type source-output driver. The TBD62783A series succeeds the TD62783 series of bipolar transistor arrays, cutting power loss by about 40% and ...
