All electronic component works on quantum probability

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

All electronic components operate based on quantum probability, contrary to the common belief that they function solely under classical physics. While classical mechanics can provide accurate results for macro objects, the inherent probabilities at the quantum level are crucial for understanding electronic behavior. This discussion emphasizes that at micro-level interactions, quantum mechanics (QM) is always relevant, and precision beyond a certain point invalidates the concept of an exact answer.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of quantum mechanics principles
  • Familiarity with classical physics concepts
  • Knowledge of electronic components and their functions
  • Basic grasp of probability theory
NEXT STEPS
  • Research quantum mechanics applications in electronics
  • Explore the differences between classical and quantum physics
  • Study the role of probability in micro-level electronic interactions
  • Investigate how quantum probability affects electronic component design
USEFUL FOR

Physicists, electrical engineers, and anyone interested in the intersection of quantum mechanics and electronics will benefit from this discussion.

If I'm right, all electronic component works on quantum probability. I was thinking all these electronic component works on classical physics only. Because probability will not produce 100% result, as and when desired.

Thank you.

I don't understand your question. EVERYTHING works on quantum probability. The difference between macro objects such as you and me is that the probabilities smooth out for macro objects so we can treat them with classical mechanics and get the right answer. If you want to get really nit-picky, there is no exact right answer out at the umpteenth decimal place because at that level of precision the probabilities matter and "exact" is invalid.

For the micro-level stuff that goes on in electronics, however, QM matters all the time.
