As the saying goes, hindsight is 20/20. It may surprise you that the microchip that we all know and love today was far from an obvious idea. Some of the paths that were being explored back then to ...

Researchers at Sun Microsystems Inc. have created a new way for computer components to communicate with each other that could ultimately spell the end of the integrated circuit board. The new ...

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 ...

Inside every smartphone, smartwatch, and medical sensor, a thin green slab quietly dominates the device’s climate impact. Researchers now warn that the printed circuit boards tying our chips together ...

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 ...

We are spoiled these days because you can shop online and get all manner of inexpensive electronic goodies shipped to your door. This is due to the fantastic electronic fabrication workflow that has ...
