As you know, I've written regularly about memristors. This fabled "fourth circuit variable" was hypothesized in 1971. Until now, though, three circuit variables have long been the basis for all electronic circuits. They are resistance, capacitance and inductance. Last year, HP made news by demonstrating a practical application of memristance. At ...read more


Investing in the Chip Revolution

Sep 16th, 2008 | By Patrick Cox | Category: Technology
Last year, a tiny semiconductor design startup, BeSang Inc., announced a breakthrough in 3-D chip fabrication. Specifically, it touted a new technique for radically improving the performance and cost-effectiveness of chips produced by conventional chip manufacturing processes. The technique itself was developed by BeSang, based in Beaverton, Ore., with the assistance ...read more
