This so-called diode-resistor logic, or DRL, was used in solid-state computers everywhere possible during this period, with transistors used only where an inverter was required. Both diode gates ...

But there are P-FETs out there that wouldn’t need that diode or resistor. This method wastes ten times less power than a simple diode would have. We’ve embedded the video after the break where ...

Diode The diode is a two-terminal electronic component that ... storing energy in an electro-magnetic field and then releasing it back into the circuit. Resistor The resistor is a passive electrical ...
