This topic is only directed at the those holding very most advanced programming skills and understanding, but I tossed in some basics so others could follow along if they wish. Many of us that have ...

We’ve often said you can make a logic gate out of darn near anything. [The Action Lab] agrees and just released a video showing how he made some logic gates from chains and gears. Along the way, he ...

Embedded microcontrollers are the original SoC devices. In the last few years FPGA and PLD manufacturers have proffered the term “System- on- a Programmable Chip” (SOPC) which captures the idea of ...

If you enjoyed this article, I’d like to ask for your support. Scientific American has served as an advocate for science and industry for 180 years, and right now may be the most critical moment in ...

Graphene is a single-atom thick carbon crystal with unique properties beneficial for electronics including extremely high electron mobility and phonon thermal conductivity. However, graphene does not ...

A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial solid-state computer that monitors inputs and outputs, and makes logic-based decisions for automated processes or machines. 1. The image above is ...

Zadeh had observed that conventional computer logic couldn’t manipulate data that represented subjective or vague ideas, so he created fuzzy logic to allow computers to determine the distinctions ...

What The Hell Even Is A Computer? Let This Artist Explain Taeyoon Choi is building a computer by hand and detailing the process in a web book. Computer logic never felt so poetic.
