Just over six inches tall, this portable calculator certainly surpassed the all-transistor calculator released just a year earlier -- that calculator weighed 55 pounds and cost $2,500.

[Paulo] just tipped us about an Excel based high frequency transistor amplifier calculator he made. We’re guessing that some of our readers already are familiar with these class A amplifiers ...

While it is hard to imagine today, securing a license to produce transistors was difficult in the early days. What’s worse is, even with the license, it was not feasible to use the crude devices ...

A technical paper titled “Roadmap for Schottky barrier transistors” was published by researchers at University of Surrey, ...

The transistor design and doping strategy introduced by the team could contribute to the development of faster and more energy-efficient electronic circuits based on 2D semiconductors.

Noted hardware historian and reverse-engineer Ken Shirriff recently found the exact transistors in the original Intel Pentium which caused the "FDIV bug", leading to a $475 million recall in 1994.

transistor calculator, an affordable microwave oven and the now-ubiquitous wall-mountable TV. Walking through the museum was a treat. I recognized old double cassette tape recorders, televideos (a ...
