transistorised
Adjective: 1. Describing an electronic device that uses transistors as its active components: This term specifies that the device's circuitry is built using transistors, which are semiconductor devices used to amplify or switch electronic signals, rather than older technologies like vacuum tubes.
The adjective "transistorised" is used attributively to describe a noun, typically a type of electronic device or equipment. It indicates the fundamental technology used in the device's construction. * The company released a fully transistorised radio in 1960, making it more portable and reliable than tube models. * Early transistorised computers were a significant step forward in miniaturization. * This is a transistorised amplifier circuit.
- The term often carries a historical or technical connotation, contrasting with "vacuum-tube" or "valve" equipment and preceding "integrated circuit" technology.
- The shift from valve to transistorised design revolutionized consumer electronics.
- Transistorized (adj): The preferred spelling in American English.
- Transistor (n): The semiconductor device itself.
- Transistorise/Transistorize (v): To equip with transistors.
- They sought to transistorise the existing amplifier design.
- Solid-state: A broader term describing electronic components (like transistors, diodes) that control current without moving parts, vacuum gaps, or heated filaments. While closely related, "solid-state" can encompass more than just transistors.
