Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

A University at Buffalo team has proposed a new form of power MOSFET transistor that can handle incredibly high voltages with minimal thickness, heralding an efficiency increase in the power ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...

In this post I will try to gain some insight into the electronics of a cheap PWM Power MOSFET Module. The module under the spotlight is the pretty common FR120N MOSFET Control Module which is a simple ...

Dimming of fluorescent lighting offers significant benefits – giving users control of their own lighting, and realizing energy savings. In certain environments dimming is a must, for instance in a ...
