It would be small, memory cheap, fast, use little power, and retain its data in the event of indefinitely power removal. Some have a commitment to technol- supply companies bipolar because of historical of the and invest- ogy development company past ment of whereas others are on capital concentrating developing unipolar technology. This has lead to claims of the of a tech- competing superiority nology for a given application. I summarises the of the Table present (1996) position competing types of logic circuit. In it will be seen that the desirable attributes are not obtained in general one TI - Semiconductor Memories JF - Active and Passive Electronic Components DO - 10.1155/1998/18137 DA - 1998-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/wiley/semiconductor-memories-BRy9Dxn76V VL - 21 IS - DP - DeepDyve ER -
