Mr. Contact's Ena.Computer Is a Modern, Miniature Vacuum Tube Computer — and It Plays Pong --Hackster.io https://www.hackster.io/news/mr-contact-s-ena-computer-is-a ...

It doesn’t happen often that we report on new vacuum tube based computer designs. Today however, we’re pleased to introduce to you the Fast Reliable Electronic Digital Dot Computer, or Fred.Computer ...

When we talk about a “computer” today, we generally picture an electronic machine that can perform various kinds of mathematical operations, manage its program flow, move data from one place to ...

A travelling wave tube shows how far vacuum electronics has come. Mention vacuum tubes and some people (those old enough and/or historically minded) might think of ENIAC, the first electronic digital ...

Vacuum tube technology is making a comeback, with physicists hoping to use miniature 'vacuum transistors' to make increasingly-smaller computers. The development comes just as the laws of physics are ...

A GIF circulating on the Internet of a data cable being attached to a 1945 computer has been followed up with detailed information about the machine by a Twitter account. It explains what this ...

Putting vacuum tubes in a PC might sound a little like adding a hand crank to a Porsche, but at least one company thinks it might be the future of computer audio. Taiwanese components company AOpen, ...

The transistor is one of the most profound innovations in all of human existence. First discovered in 1947, it has scaled like no advance in human history; we can pack billions of transistors into ...

The transistor revolutionized the world and made the abundant computing we now rely on a possibility, but before the transistor, there was the vacuum tube. Large, hot, power hungry, and prone to ...

Most people associate vacuum tubes with a time when a single computer took up several rooms and "debugging" meant removing the insects stuck in the valves, but this technology may be in for a ...
