Beyond the power variant, it sometimes seems as though we rarely encounter a discrete transistor these days, such has been...
had a project in mind: replacing a common vacuum tube with a solid-state equivalent. The tube in question was an EABC80...
The germanium point contact diode, and almost every semiconductor device using germanium, is now obsolete. There was a time when...
On our travels round the hardware world we’ve encountered more than one group pursuing the goal of making their own...
When the cool kids are showing off their SDRs it’s easy to forget that a radio receiver can be very...
Perhaps the simplest radio one can build is the crystal radio. Using a diode as a detector, the design generally...
