Thus the three basic bipolar transistor circuit configurations have equivalents with a FET; common-emitter becomes common-source, common-base becomes common-gate, and an emitter follower becomes a ...

This circuit uses a P-FET – to turn the power ... N-FETs are like NPN transistors – the gate pin needs to have higher voltage than the source pin for the FET to open. P-FETs are like PNP ...

However, increasing the voltage applied to the gate blocks the current flow between the drain and source, effectively turning the transistor "off". Transistors find extensive applications in ...

The team led by Associate Professor Mario Lanza from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering in the College of ...

A type of 3D FinFET transistor from Intel introduced in 2011 with its Ivy Bridge microarchitecture. The Tri-Gate design is considered 3D because the gate wraps around a raised source-to-drain ...
