Researchers have experimentally demonstrated how to harness a property called negative capacitance for a new type of transistor that could reduce power consumption, validating a theory proposed in ...

Ferroelectrics are getting a serious re-examination, as chipmakers look for new options to maintain drive current. Ferroelectric materials can provide non-volatile memory, serving an important ...

The experimental detection of negative capacitance in ferroelectrics rekindles hopes that the phenomenon could be used to further push the miniaturization of conventional transistors. Ferroelectrics ...

In the non-degenerate limit, the charge carriers in a MOSFET follow the Boltzmann distribution. This leads to a fundamental limit in the steepness of the I-V characteristic in the subthreshold regime, ...

At APEC in Florida, Texas Instruments introduced a family of ICs designed to shrink the size of EMC anti-emission common-mode filters in single and three-phase mains and automotive power converters.
