However, its response stability is diminished by the different characteristics of the two access transistors used in a PUF cell. To solve this problem, a novel PUF array that employs a diode-connected ...

Medium-voltage CoolGaN G5 transistors from Infineon include a built-in Schottky diode to minimize dead-time losses.

Infineon Technologies AG has announced the release of the world’s first industrial-grade gallium nitride (GaN) transistor family featuring an integrated Schottky diode. The new CoolGaN Transistor G5 ...

If the transistor has an active partner to take over reverse-conduction, then reducing dead-time, when the transistor has to reverse-conduct, will help maintain efficiency, pointed out Infineon, and ...

The current paper is a follow-up to the researches that deals with the frequency mixers analysis by the analytical method of nodal equations. The study considers the analysis of mixers, which circuit ...

Transistors act as the building blocks for many circuits and devices, permitting devices to amplify and switch electronic signals. Transistors come in different types, with the PNP and NPN transistor ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backwa… ...

Any reading between 0.5V and 0.9V indicates that the transistor behaves like two diodes connected back-to-back, which means the transistor is likely functional. 3. The Resistance Test Method Another ...

This tutorial is focused on the common base configuration of a PNP transistor, where emitter and collector share the base terminal.
