Researchers from the University of California – Riverside and Rice University have made the first single-transistor amplifier from graphene. The device is better than conventional amplifiers thanks to ...

Graphene has already brought us the world's smallest transistor – twice – and now the one atom thick form of carbon that recently won its discoverers the Nobel Prize has been used to create a ...

Immediately, I learned that the common base configuration gain was 6db lower than the common emitter. This blew my mind. Then I started checking input resistance and was shocked at how low it measured ...

There is so much to learn about the single-transistor amplifier, that this brief tutorial hardly scratches the surface. This discussion considers only the common-emitter configuration as applied to ...
