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 ...
For years I’ve been trying to wrap my mind around how silicon chips actually work. How does a purposefully contaminated shard of glass wield control over electrons? Every once in a while, someone ...
A new study has uncovered the remarkable potential of biomolecular computing that could provide innovative solutions in next ...
As with many inventions, two people had the idea for an integrated circuit at almost the same time. Transistors had become commonplace in everything from radios to phones to computers, and now ...
On the other hand, silicon-based PICs 6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16 have also become very popular, because of their compatibility with mature CMOS (complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor) technologies ...
The revelatory moment of the electronics age arguably came in January 1959, when Robert Noyce, an engineer and a founder of Fairchild Semiconductor, scrawled in his notebook the words “Methods of ...

New design tackles integer factorization problems through digital probabilistic computing
Probabilistic Ising machines (PIMs) are advanced and specialized computing systems that could tackle computationally hard ...
In my previous article on common op-amp circuits, I mentioned that operational amplifiers were used for analog computing, where analog circuits simulated the behavior of complex systems. That article ...
