Perhaps our future overlords won’t be made up of electrical circuits after all but will instead be soft-bodied like ourselves. However, their design will have its origins in electrical analogues, as ...

Living cells make decisions based on information processing genetic programmes. Many of these programmes execute digital functions 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. The capability to build synthetic digital systems in ...

Oscillators, also called astable multivibrators, are electronic devices that generate a periodic signal. They are employed in a large number of applications such as clocks, oscillophones, musical ...

Logic gates are the bricks and mortar of digital electronics, implementing a logical operation on one or more binary inputs to produce a single output. These operations are what make all computations ...

Researchers in the US are the first to make tiny electromechanical logic circuits that operate at temperatures as high as 500 °C. The circuits contain two switches made from silicon carbide and ...

A logic gate is an electronic component (or set of them) that performs a logic operation, in which the binary values 0 and 1 are represented with two different voltage values, as seen in the previous ...
