In the early digital era, logic gates were made exclusively of transistors and discrete components. The obvious occupation of a large space and increased heat dissipation pushed technology to ...

What Is A Hybrid Integrated Circuit? A hybrid integrated circuit (HIC) or a hybrid microcircuit, is a miniaturised electronic circuit that combines different electronic components on a single platform ...

Research in integrated circuits and systems in the CU Boulder Department of Electrical, Computer & Energy Engineering is focused on the grand challenge in today’s and future integrated systems, which ...

Years ago, Tektronix could not justify an expensive, high-performance semiconductor operation solely for producing competition-defeating ICs for oscilloscopes, and formed a joint venture with Maxim ...

An integrated circuit (IC), also known as a microchip or chip, is a miniaturized electronic circuit consisting of transistors, resistors, capacitors, and other components fabricated onto a single ...

Individual transistors made from carbon nanotubes are faster and more energy efficient than those made from other materials. Going from a single transistor to an integrated circuit full of transistors ...

Different challenges have to be overcome when designing integrated circuits. Besides schematic and layout design work, verification in view of the non-ideal behavior of circuits and semiconductor ...
