To keep the structural integrity of the near-vacuum tube, there will be no windows. Image Plans call for Virgin Hyperloop One's system, once in commercial operation, to reach a continuous speed of ...

Why you should ditch your Bluetooth speaker for the smooth, sweet and surprisingly affordable sound of a vacuum-tube amplifier. ... This copy is for your personal, non-commercial use only.

The vacuum tube features of fast speeds, virtual distortion immunity and high gains were no match for the higher reliability, smaller size and far lower power dissipation. Advertisement NASA Ames ...

Unlike some tube-based synths, Mars doesn't rely on vacuum tubes to generate sound. Instead, it's a hybrid instrument that features digital oscillators based on the R-2R TDA 1387, a vintage digital-to ...

When I was in school for electronics back in 79/80 tubes were still everywhere and I worked a lot with them, solid state was still gaining ground. I’m fascinated at how much tubes are gaining again.

Vacuum tubes went the way of the dinosaurs in the 1960s, but researchers now have brought them back to life, creating a nano-sized version that's faster and hardier than the transistor.

Ever since the dawn of the solid state electronics, vacuum tubes have taken a backseat role in device engineering. But DARPA wants to develop next generation vacuum tube electronics that prove the ...

A vacuum tube is just that: a glass tube surrounding a vacuum (an area from which all gases have been removed). What makes it interesting is that when electrical contacts are put on the ends, you ...
