The problem is that the transistors used to make logic circuits hold their electronic state, and therefore any data they contain, only when powered up.

问题是，用来制造逻辑电路的晶体管中保留着它们的电子态，因此当这些晶体管通电的时候，它们会包含任何可能的数据。

Hundreds of tiny transistors, chips, and other electronic parts are attached to each circuit board by "pick and place" robots, whose multiple arms move almost too fast to follow.

几百个微细的晶体管、晶片和其他电子零件被机械人“拾起并定位”到每块电子版上，多支机械手臂一起快速舞动，让人目不暇接。

Researchers have now refined the production technique and are busy turning graphene into low-power electronic components such as transistors.

研究者们现已改良了石墨烯的生产工艺，正忙于将其转化为低功率电子元件，比如晶体管。

Each of the transistors can independently produce an electronic signal when placed under mechanical strain.

BBC: Sensors

The pieces of scenery are activated by switching on and off so-called passthrough transistors that control the flow of electronic signals from one part of the chip to another.

FORBES: Chips that change their spots

Electronic chips consist of millions of transistors, each of which does one simple thing: it uses the voltage at one of its three junctions to decide whether or not to let current flow between the other two.
