Researchers have devised a way to fabricate “stairstep” vias which may enhance the usefulness of flexible PCB circuitry.

If a phone or other electronic device were made of soft materials, how would that change its use? Would it be more durable?

The team's new technique makes no holes and uses liquid metal microdroplets to form soft vias and planar interconnects, ...

Strategic placement of decoupling capacitors and regulators is critical to keeping power stable, but no one approach is ...

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 ...

New processes, materials, and combinations of existing technologies will determine future directions for semiconductors.

Here we demonstrate an unexpected degree of flexibility and cognition in a decision made by a hunting animal at reflex-like speed. Based on observing initial speed, direction, and height of falling ...

Gordon Moore's prediction made over 40 years ago, that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit would double ... Furthermore, non-planar designs such as tri-gate transistors are being ...

This is planar technology using an ultra-thin 8μm polymer material. The choice of material enables the HW600 to have an extended frequency response at the upper and lower ends. The use of such an ...

Austin, Texas, is the home of the United States Grand Prix and Circuit of The Americas, the country’s only purpose-built F1 track. Construction began on Dec. 21, 2010, and it wasn’t until two ...
