Over on YouTube [DENKI OTAKU] runs us through how a 4-pin MOSFET works and what the extra Kelvin source pin does. A typical MOSFET might come in a 3-pin TO-247 package, but there are 4-pin variants ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Chief Analyst & CEO, NAND Research. Qualcomm, a company built on selling chips to companies like Samsung and Apple in volumes of ...

Over on YouTube our hacker [VIP Love Secretary] shows us how to make a simple MOSFET tester. This is a really neat, useful, elegant, and simple hack, but the video is kind of terrible. We found that ...

A new MOSFET providing precise voltage and leakage current balancing is ready to serve supercapacitors ranging from 2.8 V to 3.3 V. ALD910030 uses virtually no power for cell balancing and facilitates ...

Silicon MOSFETs are still viable and receiving ongoing process and R&D efforts. How and why the latest mid-voltage silicon MOSFET from Renesas proves it. The features of a development kit that eases ...

In this article, we summarize a recent initial demonstration of an aluminum nitride (AlN) UWBG-based MOSFET device. Decades of research and development are needed to successfully commercialize a new ...
