A gate turn-off switch, also known as a gate-controlled switch (GCS) or gate turn-off thyristor (GTO), is similar to an SCR but can be turned off by a negative signal on the gate terminal. GTOs ...

Gate sizing is a fundamental technique in VLSI design, where the dimensions of transistors and gates are carefully adjusted to achieve optimal performance, minimise power consumption and reduce delay.

They are designed to replace hydraulic or pneumatic systems used in valve-gate control, including sequential valve gating. Actuators produce 500 lb of continuous force, are water cooled to operate at ...
