I am writing this series of articles as a protest against the behavior of Purism, a company which claims that transparency and openness are their core…
The Open 7400 Logic Competition is a crowd-sourced contest with a simple but broad criteria for entry: build something interesting out of discrete logic chips. It's now in its second year, and this time around I was inspired to enter it.

Most technician textbooks do a very poor job of explaining the details of transistors' internal workings. First they assume that the Base current is somehow controlling the Collector current, then they try to explain how one current can affect another. These explanations invariably fail because Bipolar transistors…

If a substance or behavior controls us, it becomes our master, and that just won’t do. For the…
