Typically, transistors consist of three layers, or terminals, of a semiconductor material, each of which can carry a current. When working as an amplifier, a transistor transforms a small input current into a bigger output current. As a switch, it can be in one of two distinct states -- on or off -- to control the flow of electronic signals through an electrical circuit or electronic device. In small quantities, transistors are used to create simple electronic switches. They are the basic elements in integrated circuits (ICs), which consist of a large number of transistors interconnected with circuitry and baked into a single silicon microchip"--Provided by publisher.TransistorsIntegrated circuitsIntegrated CircuitsSemiconductorsTechnology & EngineeringTransistors.Integrated circuits.621.38152809Nathan Arokia1957-Saha Samar K.Todi Ravi M.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK991073556470332175th anniversary of the transistor3421863UNINA
