Electronics in the home

Electronics began at the start of the twentieth century with the invention of the vacuum tube. The first devices for everyday use were radios, followed by televisions, record players and tape recorders. These devices were large and used a lot of power.

The invention of the transistor in 1947 meant that much smaller, low-powered devices could be developed. A wide variety of electronic devices such as hi-fi units and portable radios became common in the home.

It was not until 1958 that microelectronics began with the development of ICs (integrated circuits) on silicon chips. This led to a great increase inthe use of electronics in everyday items. The introduction of the microprocessor allowed electronics to be used for the control of many common processes.

Microprocessors are now used to control many household items such as automatic washing-machines, dishwashers, central heating systems, sewing machines, and food processors. Electronic timers are found in digital alarm clocks, water heaters, electric cookers, and microwave ovens. Telephones use electronics to provide automatic dialling and answerphone facilities. New entertainment devices have been developed, such as video recorders and CD (compact disc) players.

In the future, electronics are likely to become even more common in the home as multimedia entertainment systems and computer-controlled robots are developed.

The Integrated Chip

1. The transistors are the main part in the integrated chip. The concept behind an integrated chip is relatively simple: an entire electrical circuit with numerous transistors, wires, and other electrical devices all built into a single square of silicon. These chips are smaller than a centimeter-by-centimeter square, yet then can hold millions of transistors. If one person sat down to build all those miniscule parts and then connect them, it would take a whole year. But companies turn out several million integrated chips every few second - that's about the time it took you to read this sentence.

2. The reason integrated chips are possible at all is because engineers learned ways to build layers, making millions of transistors across the chip all at the same time. The first deas on how to build the chips were developed by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce in 1958, and they've been developed further over the years.

3. The chip is built upwards, layer by layer. Each layer is made by putting masks with particular patterns over the silicon and then altering the qualities of the silicon - or perhaps putting down metal or insulators - in the exposed parts.

4. The chip is made out of a semiconductor crystal. The chip starts out as a thin wafer of p-type silicon. This is then coated with a layer of silicon dioxide - kind of a silicon rust, which doesn't conduct electricity. On top of this is placed a chemical called photoresist. Flashing a pattern of light (like the grid of light and dark that's formed by a window screen) on the photoresist turn any parts exposed to the light hard. The bits left in shadow stay soft. Then an etching chemical is applied those soft parts, and the silicon dioxide underneath them, are removed. The hard photoresist is then dissolved, leaving a pattern of raised silicon dioxide along the surface. Since the silicon dioxide doesn't conduct electricity, it keeps different parts of the final circuit separated from others.

5. Following the same method, a pattern of polysilicon (which does conduct electricity and is part of the transistor) is added. Then, again using projected photoresist masks, areas of the chip are doped to become n-type silicon, another crucial part of a transistor. Lastly, metal leads are added to connect the various components on the chip.

6. Since the chips are so small, hundreds are made on a single silicon wafer at once. After all the patterns have been faithfully reproduced on to the chips, the wafer is sliced up into individual chips.

FROM THE HISTORY OF TRANSISTORS

 

Scientists have invented very many electron devices serving us in various ways. Electronic (vacuum) valves are wonderful devices which serve to do jobs in radio and TV sets, in radars, for controlling manufacturing processes etc.

Still while using the mentioned vacuum valves scientists have noticed some drawbacks. They waste a good deal of electricity. One of the elements, the filament, is heated to such a degree that it gives off electrons. This heating requires electricity and produces unwanted heat. Scientists realized the drawbacks of electronic valves and began to search for other ways of doing the jobs that valves had done. Soon a new device, the transistor, appeared. It was so small that you had to look carefully to see it.

In recent years the art of semiconductor engineering has reached such a state of development that it rapidly replaces electron valves, previously considered the heart of modern radio.

For a long time had been no well-founded semiconductor theory although many cases of practical approach to the development of semiconductor circuits were recorded. The research carried out in 1922 by the engineer O.V. Losev was of great interest because his work showed that a semiconductor (a crystal) could be used as a generator of electromagnetic oscillations.

The engineers had designed a special crystal receiver and it showed its much higher sensitivity.

Semiconductor triodes, or transistors are at present widely used in various amplifiers, receivers, oscillators and countless electronic devices. Some transistors can replace electronic valves hundreds of times their size. Transistors need far less current and produce far less heat than comparable electronic valves. They are made of small germanium or silicon crystals.  

 

 

            II. Say whether the following statements are true or false:

 

1. Electronic (vacuum) valves serve to do jobs in radio and TV sets, in radars, for controlling manufacturing processes etc.

2. They waste poor deal of electricity.

3. Heating requires electricity and produces unwanted heat.

4. Losev’s research showed that a semiconductor could be used as an amplifier.

5. Transistors need far less current and produce far less heat than comparable electronic valves.

Diodes

1. A diode is one of the important parts of the integrated circuit. A diode, or "rectifier", is any device through which electricity can flow in only one direction. The first diodes were crystals used as rectifiers in home radio kits. A weak radio signal was fed into the crystal through a very fine wire called a cat's whisker. The crystal removed the high frequency radio carrier signal, allowing the part of the signal with the audio information to come through loud and clear. The crystal was filled with impurities, making some sections more resistant to electrical flow than others. Using the radio required positioning the cat's whiskers over the right kind of impurity to get electricity to flow through the crystal to the output below it.

2. At the time, though, no one really understood about the impurities - then in 1939 Russell Ohl accidentally discovered that it was the boundary between sections of different purity that made the crystal work. Now that the way they work is understood, manufacturers make crystal diodes that work much more consistently than the ones in those original radio kits.

3. A crystal diode is made of two different types of semiconductors right next to each other. One side is easy for electrons to travel through: one side is much tougher. It's something like trying to swim through a pool filled with water and then a pool filled with mud: swimming through water is easy; swimming through mud is next to impossible. To an electron some semiconductors seem like water, some like mud.

4. One side of the semiconductor boundary is like mud, one like water. If you try to get electricity to move from the mud side to the water side, there's no problem. The electrons just jump across the boundary, forming a current. But try to make electricity go the other way and nothing will happen. Electrons that didn't have to work hard to travel around the water side just don't have enough energy to make it into the mud side. (In real life, there are always a few electrons that can trickle in the wrong direction, but not enough to make a big difference).

5. This boundary has turned out to be crucial for all daily lives. Diodes change the alternating current that comes from your wall outlet into the direct current that most appliances need. And transistors need two such boundaries to work.

 

 

II. Choose the right answer.

Example: What is a crystal diode made of?

a) two different types of semiconductors;

b) three different types of semiconductors;

c) impurities;

d) alloys.

1. What is a cat's whisker?

a) a weak radio signal;

b) a very fine wire;

c) an integrated circuit;

d) a rectifier.

2. What are the substances making some sections more resistant to electrical flow than others?

a) impurities;

b) etching chemicals;

c) silicon;

d) masks with particular patterns.

3. What makes the crystal work?

a) a cat's whisker;

b) an electrical flow;

c) a boundary between section of different purity;

d) a radio signal.

4. What do electrons do in real life?

a) jump across the boundary;

b) don't have to work hard to travel around the water side;

c) don't have enough energy to travel into the mud side;

d) can trickle in the wrong direction.

5. What do diodes change?

a) alternating current into the direct current;

b) boundaries between sections;

c) types of semiconductors;

d) high frequency radio carrier signal.
