Created by Patrick Hoppe, of the Wisconsin Online Resource Center, this is an introduction to the metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). Along with a general introduction, students also examine its enhancement mode. This is a nice, brief introduction to the topic.

This PBS website is about the history of the transistor. Visitors can learn more about the timeline of inventions in this area, including the discovery of the electron, the silicon p-n junction, the invention of the transistor, the integrated circuit and the future of transistors. The website...

This resource provides an interactive activity on field effect transistors. These are "a type of transistor that utilizes an electric field to control the shape of a channel in which charge carriers in a semiconductor material flow." An interactive diagram is presented allowing students to...

This interactive presentation, created by Terry Bartelt and hosted by the Electromechanical Digital Library, discusses the tri-state buffer used in devices employing digital circuitry. A tri-state buffer is "one type of device that is used in digital circuits receiving two logic states but producing...

Description:  This learning module is provided by Work-Ready Electronics and covers troubleshooting principles. Work-Ready Electronics modules are intended to be used either independently or integrated with current electronics curricula in college programs. This module is divided into three...

This case study highlights the Borough of Manhattan Community College's creation of an accessible robotics curriculum in collaboration with the Center for Applied Special Technology (CAST). This curriculum was "used for outreach to high schools in order to increase the representation of students of...

This video, provided by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the first part of a two part lecture that examines unbalanced Y configurations. The main objective of the lesson is to "examine electrical properties of unbalanced 4 and 3 wire Y configured loads in 3 phase AC systems." This video runs...
