Explains the principles of transistor switching circuits, highlighting their role in electronic computers. It contrasts transistors with vacuum tubes, emphasizing that transistors function as ...

“Three-terminal thermal analogies to electrical transistors have been proposed for use in thermal amplification, thermal switching, or thermal logic, but have not yet been demonstrated experimentally.

Linear circuits are simple and elegant and remain the foundation of analog and digital circuit design. In fact, no matter how digital or logic intensive a circuit it is, certain fundamental blocks, ...
