We all know, at least intellectually, that our computers are all built with lots of tiny transistors. But beyond that it’s a little hard to describe. They’re printed on a silicon wafer somehow ...

NUS researchers have shown that a single transistor can replicate both neural and synaptic behaviors, marking a significant ...

and some past experience of building computers on perfboard from discrete transistors, so this next project, Q2, is a complete implementation of a PDP8-like microcomputer on a single PCB.

The rule states that the number of transistors on a computer chip doubles about every 18 months, driving rapid progress in computers and telecommunications. Doubling the number of devices that can fit ...

If transistors could replace vacuum tubes in the phone system, then they certainly could replace them in computers too. The army, with its need for ever-faster and more efficient calculations ...

The story opens: An all-transistor general purpose computer, the GE-225, has been developed by International General Electric of New York. It is said to have a “general compiler“ programming technique ...

As an essential part of a broad spectrum of electronic devices such as computers, smartphones, and other consumer electronics, transistors play a vital role in driving technological progress.
