Actually, the first transistors were germanium, not silicon. And other materials have been tried as well, e.g. gallium arsenide. Also note that the “doping” process uses such tiny traces of the additional elements to make such a big change to its electrical properties, the substrate would still for many purposes be considered “chemically pure”.

the two simplest ones are the and and or gates. for an "and" gate, imagine two switches in a row, both need to be on for the circuit to be complete giving a value of 1. If one of them is off, there is no current, and the value is 0. For an "or" gate, it's two switches in parallel. As long as one (or both) is on, the circuit is again complete. other gates get more complicated, but that should give you a basic idea. Hope it helps!

I never once had it click like that for me and all of a sudden those first semesters of class make more sense

Great video! Additionally, thermal challenges caused by the decreasing size, increasing density, power consumption and inadequate cooling techniques (mainly convection with air, and watercooling more recently) are also causing the decline in performance improvements with each iteration. Splitting the cpu’s into different cores managed to increase computing power further, but the performance on a single core basis hasn’t really improved that much since around 05/06 :)

Great video! And crazy how far we've come. We can really see Moore's Law in effect here with the mention that "a modern phone has around 2 billion transistors", this video being just under 5 years old. Last year's iPhones have a SOC with 11.8 billion (a new one will come out in 2-3 months with likely even more) and the Snapdragon 888 on high-end Android phones has about 10 billion (some SOCs have way more, like the Kirin 9000 which has 15.3 billion!). So 5 years passed, and we have 5-6 times the number of transistors already: this tracks Moore's Law pretty much exactly with a doubling every 2 years, or after 5 years multiplying by 2^(5/2) ≈ 5.66.

This is one of the BEST explanations of how computers work. Everyone just does conceptual stuff like graphically representing logic gates and droning on about binary without touching on what a transistor is or what it looks like and how it's made and what it's made of. Nice job showing what's really going on. Now could you walk through how programming hello world or something like that actually translates through a modern computer all the way down to the hardware itself?

Depends on the area of electronics you are working in. Germanium transistors (bipolar) are being further researched in labs for ultra low noise applications, Gallium Arsenide for MMIC high frequency circuits, silicon carbide for high temperature semiconductors, and I am personally looking at valve triodes for some applications where semiconductors have too many disadvantages. I personally have a stock of OA95 diodes (about 150) because you just cannot get a silicon equivalent. Solid core memory is preferable to modern semiconductor memory in a very few applications, and the only two technologies I believe to be truly obsolete are Integrated Injection Logic (see TI TMS 9900 from early 80;s) and loop memory and I could be wrong on the second.

Awesome illustation for an Electrical Engineer like me (I barely remembered this stuff after 5 years of working in different field). I would recommend to open up explanations more and a bit of more time to comprehend to let others benefit from your great content.

Thank you so much. Your video helped me bridge the gap of understanding between the tube and the transistor.

a mild correction: n-type semiconductor aren't negatively charged. Similarly p-type semiconductors aren't positively charged either, both of them are neutral. The initials just represent the type of charge which is conducted when applied a voltage on the crystal. That implies in the case of n-types the charge that's being conducted is electron(-ve), and In the case of p-types their is no actual long distance conduction of electron, it's the absence of electron which can can be taken as a movement of positive charge, but overall the crystal is neutral. P.S : still an amazing video, love your content.

Brilliant lecture and visuals. Thank you!

You go to the beach and get some sand. Melt that sand and rapidly cool it to form a crystaline silicone structure. Remove the crystaline segments onto a new container - repeat a few times untill the silicon percentage is near max. Next, add your choice of cation or anion atom in a 1 to 10 ratio to your silicon (add more to increase conductivity). Repeat everything to form new (usually 3) varying conductivity layers and ion boundaries. Make sure the surrounding material enclosing the silicon is non-conductive. Finally, add a copper trail leading to the silicone mixture from a power source. The electrons will move from the cathode to the anode towards the silicon's electron deprived layer, but only if the middle layer has a low electron potential energy (electron deficient) if it's being supplied by voltage by a different circuit (rich in electrons) it won't allow the original circuit to form (this part was explained in the vid).

I started working in a TV repair shop in 1970 at age 16. The TVs then had tubes and were starting to get semiconductors. I just retired from doing satellite, microwave and fiber optic communications

Excellent introduction! A couple minor nitpicks (from a long-time EE): - N-type silicon is not negatively charged; it just has an excess of electrons not bound into the crystalline lattice. They are therefore very easy to disassociate from their atomic nuclei to conduct electricity. - NPN transistors are not really particularly common nowadays. By far the most common are MOSFETs, which by the way, behave even more like vacuum tubes. They are, essentially, voltage-controlled resistors: the “channel” through which current conducts, is all one type of Silicon, and is intrinsically an insulator. However, the third “gate” terminal can pull carriers (electrons or “holes”) into the channel making it much more conductive - “turning it on,” so to speak. Nevertheless, great video!

Voltage between the base and the emitter controls the current between the collector and the emitter (there's close to zero current on the base). If you only change the base voltage by a few millivolts, it acts like a linear amplifier (voltage controlled current source). If you change it by the volts, it's basically a switch. Base on high voltage -> collector on low voltage (because collector-emitter acts like a short circuit); base on low voltage -> collector on high voltage (because collector-emitter acts like an infinite resistance) (assuming that the collector is connected to VCC through a resistor, and the emitter is connected to GND, which is almost always the case).

Actually, if it wasn't for overpopulation and over-hunting, we would still be hunter/gatherers. And agriculture had a lot of downsides: the diet wasn't less varied, more time had to spend on work, especially in the beginning it was actually far less reliable for food gathering due to crop failures - the protection of the crops was very lacking after all: insects, sickness, weather... All could destroy your harvest and you would be starving. Hunter/gatherers did certainly not struggle to survive. Anthropologists today argue that they knew damn well that plants grow when you bury seeds. If you look to hunter/gatherers today, they have more leisure time than we do, or the first farmers would've had. The transition towards agricultural society was also not very fast, but went very gradually. There were even native American hunter/gatherer tribes who grew tobacco but not a single other crop. Of course, without agriculture we wouldn't have advanced as much as a society, but back then it wasn't as appealing as you seem to think.

@MasterBombadillo

7 жыл бұрын

mrbandishbhoir Yeah, of course larger population were supported by the agricultural revolution. However, the reason the first farmers had to change from a hunter/gatherer society to an agricultural one was because of overpopulation. Overpopulation is exactly that: the land can't sustain the amount of people anymore based on a certain economic model or method of getting food. Hunter/gatherers made a slow transition towards agriculture because they needed more food to sustain their population. Also, like I said, without agriculture we wouldn't be were we are now, but in the past, with a primitive agriculture, farming wasn't as reliable (especially in the short run) and the choice wasn't so clear-cut as many think. Hunter/gatherers also had much more spare time than farmers, but also didn't need that many extra tools in their society, so didn't need to concentrate on other things.

Of course you are right! But not entirely. Actually the early farmers for the first millennia were in pretty bad shape. The remains of these early farmers show a lot signs of malnutrition and especially unbalanced/low quality nutrition lacking proteins and vitamins. The hunters and gatherers were in a way better shape for all the generations before farming and especially their teeth and bones were stronger and healthier. That eventually changed with refined methods of farming and especially new crops. And it makes sense! The first farmers only had really bad plants to cultivate. All starchy corns we have today (including rice, corn, and broomcorn) were bred out of ordinary grass like plants. Also every kale, beet and cucumber like plant (melon, pumpkin) and others were not available. Apples were there but way smaller and only from Kazakhstan to Caucasus region. There were no citrus plants outside of east Asia and they were tiny and not edible. Later Asia had rice, Europe had wheat like stuff, and the Americas potatoes and corn. No one had all but you need more than one to have a decent baseline for nutrition. Especially potatoes did a miracle to Europe since they yield so much more on the same land and contain a ton of vitamins and minerals compared to really poor wheat products. The balance only shifted to a mostly balanced nutrition for the masses with globalization of cultural plants, trade with corn-like products between continents for the calories intake, mass cultivation of fruits that yield from late spring with strawberries to early summer with cherries and gooseberry (etcetera) to plums and pears for late summer and grapes and apples all over fall to December (winter apples - could be stored until spring) for extra vitamins and healthy ingredients, and finally the dedicated and planned usage of fertilizer ranging from just manure to guano (it was a huge increase for precious cultivation like citrus when guano was discovered and exported all over the world) and especially when artificial fertilizer was invented. And that only really started to kick in in the 19th century. Before that time famines or phases of awful monotone nutrition were the USUAL for any agricultural society. With only two years of bad harvests (to much or less rain, hail storms and especially early or late frost) in a row famines occurred. One bad harvest alone caused lacking nutrition. For what is now the first world famines were only finally solved by introduction of early machinery that increased the yields per farmer extremely, continent wide interconnect rails to transport food to areas with bad yields or food that can't be grown there in great masses for extremely low costs, centralized organized wheat and corn storages, cooled (below 0°C) transport ships that allowed to bring in raw meat from other continents and transport fruits like bananas and pineapples for reasonable costs, ice factories for allowing individuals to store food longer and inventions like conserved cans possible by inventions like pasteurization. And all that only happened in the first years of the 20th (!) century. Before that poor rural population often (but not always - North America is fertile and vast enough to support a fed and well off population from the 18th century) had a lower quantity and quality nutrition their predecessors 20.000 years in the same area had. Sorry for the wall of text. I just like this topic and are genuinely interested in it.

And according to computing urban lore, ENIAC was where we got the term "A program bug". The story goes that one day the scientists set up the computer to run a basic program, but ran into an error. They double-checked all the settings and tried to run it again, again with an error. They then checked all the vacuum tubes in the back. Supposedly they found that a moth had flown into the room, into the back of the computer, and landed on one of the tubes, which then shorted out, frying the moth. Thus, the term "A bug in the program" or "A programming bug" was born. Well, that's the story my dad told me when I was getting into computers at the end of the 1970's. He was a computer operator for a Canadian airline in the 70's and 80's, so I figured I could believe him.

this is very good, actually reading introduction to computer organization (great book) and covered signed and unsigned binary arithmetic the last couple days. helps you become a better developer knowing more how it works under the hood.

Technology has changed a lot from when I started working first with valves then transistors and onto integrated circuits. I recall early LCD and LED technology. Amazing times.

the n type and p type are not actually negative, they are both neutral, but their prefixes refer to the type of charges that move around. For the n type, there is an extra electron than there would be if there were all silicon atoms, however since the phosphorus has a neutral valence shell of 5, it remains neutral. This electron can them move around making other silicon atoms negative and phosphorus positive but the total charge remains neutral. in the p type all the other electrons move around and it seems as though the positive charge is moving.

4:43 A key thing happening here, as with the triode vacuum tube, is _amplification_ : a small-amplitude signal can be used to control the amplitude of a much larger voltage or current, producing a stronger version of the same signal (barring well-known limitations like noise and distortion).

Truly incredible video. I feel like I barely, kind of, actually understand how computers work now!

That was very informative. Probably the first time in 50 years someone has broken down the fundamentals of how transistors make a computer work. The demonstration of the half adder was very helpful.

Thanks for the video. Congratulations. 😎👍 I just want to mention that the npn bipolar junction transistor (BJT) that you showin the video is mainly used in old logic families like TTL, today used in a few applications. The MOSFET, in which CMOS technology is based (present in almost all microelectronic devices today) has other structure and functions in a different way, maybe closer to the triode vacuum tube that you showed.

This video is great for layperson but there are a number of important inaccuracies: 3:54: p- and n-type silicon aren't positively and negatively charged respectively. Both are electrically neutral. There is an excess of free electrons in n-type, but because the group 5 dopants also have more protons, overall the material is electrically neutral. This caveat is critical in understanding the formation of the depletion region. Because free electrons diffuse from n-type into p-type, when both were initially neutral, the n-type actually becomes positive and p-type becomes negative. This causes a voltage that actually opposes the diffusion of majority carriers, which is why the depletion region doesn't just grow until all the charge carriers recombine. 4:58: I think it's important to note that modern digital circuits are constructed predominantly using MOSFETs when this video describes a BJT.

Borned 1961 I think electronics came with the package and the story readings by my mother had me reading before the age of 4, and it would have me building my first " fox hole" radio receiver from scatch and used a platnium razor blade and a safety pin as a detector before age 6. I lived in a what was left of a small coal town and reading material was little to none. Wv was just implementing a program called Kindergarten and parents had the choice of sending their children or not. Luckily I was asked if I wanted to attend and I said yes not realizing what ly ahead. I remember being at awe when I seen a library full of books to read. When I found the section with electronic books containing what I seemed to live for had me reading every book and some I would read over and over. By ten years of age I could answer any question thrown at me and so many was nothing short of amazed. Electonics are still atop my interest at 62 years of age. Looking back has me believing there was help in our change from transistor to integrated circuits era. First it was a long drag of vacuum tube analog usage and no binary code that this video implies and lasting 70-80 years. 1965 to about 1975 was the solely transistor phase and after that came the in rush of integrated circuits that could sport a 20 or more transistors in a small package that reduced the distance for electrons to travel. This made a huge difference in buying a 7 transistor radio and one utilizing integrated circuits by which industry deemed "non serviceable " only to have myself owning a soldering iron( wood burning device kit) and straws for blowing melted solder away from board to replace defective part. I was earning $ doing this while others were cutting grass or shoveling snow to get a buck. After many years of tube technology with only about ten years of solely tranistors then suddenly integrated circuits (though transistors shared circuits in the higher wattage stages like output stages of audio and RF in communications) I'm nearly 100% sure that integrated circuits and PLCs were made possible by reversed engineering with ties to Area 51 and other hidden from the public events. If not for this we'd be so far from where we are today would be unimaginable.

Amazing. Im currently studying to become an electronics engineer. This video summarizes my second year semester course topics.

I wish I could learn like I could when I was a kid. I just realized this is sponsored by The Great Courses. I have their course on electronics and I've watched the DVD lectures on transistors at least 20 times, it's really fantastic, but it's so hard for me to learn complex things at 40. 3:59 mentions doping, and the TGC lesson spends the time to clearly explain that term, and many other things. I learned how to rebuild my weedwhacker recently and it was easy to learn and remember. This shit, I can understand, but it's way over my head. Obviously I'm here because I'm still trying to learn anyway. I've rewatched from 3:40 several times now, and it's using simplicity to tie together the more complex TGC lesson on this and I'm finally getting it.

I don't especially disagree. There is no way to quantify what invention did the most, and any opinion is equally correct (or equally incorrect for that matter). And like you said, each important invention is required for us to get to the next one, somewhat like the tech tree in the Civilization games. However I'm still going to claim the transistor is bigger. Yes, it requires electricity, which required industry, which required melting and forging, which required fire (more or less), but while all those have greatly impacted our society, the transistor is changing our society from noticeably in only a couple of decades to the point of not being recognizable for anyone who hasn't lived it. And we've only scratched the surface of what it can do. While all of the previous mentioned technologies are required to make it, the transistor is the end product (or descendant of, if we start using something that, say, takes 3 states instead of only 2). It's going to change in many ways, but the the idea of a computer storing numbers isn't going to go away in any foreseeable future. Or maybe I'm just a dumb person who's can't see past the present because I'm living in it. My forefathers might have thought the exact same thing as me about anything important in their life.

But yes, the transistor is definitely up there in the great invention of mankind.
