In the first of a multi-part series on how to design a custom chip for under $1,000, our Analog Editor gets you started with a Magnificent 7 list of textbooks. TinyTapeout offers a course that ...

CMOS-built optical phase modulators shrink laser control hardware and power use for trapped atom quantum computers, enabling larger stable qubit arrays at work. (Nanowerk News) Researchers have made a ...

Quickly learn what the difference is between PMOS and NMOS transistors in their structure and operation, and how CMOS works with the two in combination. Siliwiz, a free, browser-based, ASIC layout ...

A device smaller than a grain of dust is emerging as a surprisingly powerful candidate to reshape how quantum computers are ...

In a milestone for scalable quantum technologies, scientists from Boston University, UC Berkeley, and Northwestern University have reported the world’s first electronic–photonic–quantum system on a ...

David Reilly and his University of Sidney team developed a silicon chip that can control spin qubits at milli-kelvin temperatures. That’s just slightly above absolute zero (-273.15 degrees Celsius), ...

Impressively, the unit registered the lowest frequency loss of any chip to date. Specifically, the engineers noted that the new chip was 15x more stable and 100x more efficient in terms of microwave ...

In this image adapted from the figures, the left side shows the chip micrograph, while the right side displays the pixel layout and schematics, highlighting each circuit element. The new pixel circuit ...

One of the biggest challenges of developing a scalable chip was determining how to manage the power and temperature when generating terahertz waves. "Because the frequency and the power are so high, ...

CMOS stands for Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor. Even though it’s a small chip on your motherboard, it does a lot ...
