The name refers indirectly to a pastime of mine: creating a circuit, like a switching power supply, with as few transistors as possible, without compromising on performance. There isn't anything special about seven transistors, but it is a representative number, and a lot fewer than are used inside an IC for the same purposes! While these designs are not usually very practical, the experience as a design exercise is invaluable. Everything I do, I do to the same exacting standards, whether designing circuits, or merely answering questions.
