Sentences with phrase «amount of transistors»

Moore's Law predicted that the amount of transistors per square inch on circuits would double every 24 months.

As for MSAA - I'd rather like the GPU vendors to use that (rather significant) amount of transistors in other parts of GPUs.

Not exact matches

Each of these phases in digitalization required massive amounts of invested capital, which yielded substantial gains in productivity, as transistors became smaller, more powerful, more affordable and ubiquitous.

But its solution has practical applications, for instance in connecting transistors on a chip with the minimum amount of gold wire.

While the number of electricity - hungry transistors that can be squeezed onto a silicon chip has doubled about every two years over the past few decades, it took more than 20 years (from 1970 to 1990) to double the amount of energy that rechargeable batteries can store per pound.

Consequently, the transistors required inordinate amounts of power.

The next step is to use microbes to create biological transistors, which could detect small amounts of pathogens or deadly chemicals.

We have seen piezoelectric transistors incorporated into synthetic skins making them sensitive enough to read fingerprints, other approaches that use multipurpose sensors to detect temperature and humidity in addition to pressure, and others that use pressure - sensitive materials made from inorganic semiconductors to only use a small amounts of power.

Clipped to the strap of my sports bra is a Sunsprite, a little gizmo that looks like a cross between a Fitbit and a transistor radio, which tracks how close I've gotten to the amount of light science suggests can improve mood, boost my alertness, and keep my circadian rhythms (aka my sleep - wake cycles) on track.

Transistor plays out like Fallout with real - time, incorporating elements of a turn - based isometric game by allowing players to pause the game and make a limited amount of moves before executing their plan.

Transistor count alone can't be used to judge «power» as such (though that's what Moore's Law is based on) but it's safe to say there'd need to be a huge amount of efficiency gains to produce anything like the same amount of processing power as the 360 with that silicon budget.»

What so many fail to grasp is the nature of an external forcing and how a little heat can control a greater amount, not dissimilar to a power transistor by the way.

The transistors inspired engineers to design something even more complex to handle large amounts of data which could also be reliable, cost - effective and minuscule in size.

In the LCD space, the backlight has to pass through filters, which aren't 100 percent efficient, and the pixel controlling transistor also takes up a notable amount of space that blocks some light in every sub-pixel.

It utilizes 3D Tri-Gate Transistor technology that provides triple amount of surface area compared to single plane (or planar) transistors.
