One can 3D print with conductive filament, and therefore plausibly create passive components like resistors. But what about active components, which typically require semiconductors? Researchers at ...

Continued pressure for electronic devices that provide greater functionality in ever-smaller form-factors is not only providing the driving force behind developing smaller surface-mount components and ...

A device that modifies the signals that pass through it in some manner. For example, an active hub in the network regenerates fading input pulses into new, strong output pulses. In contrast, a passive ...
