The Integrated Circuit (IC)

An IC consists of interconnected electronic components
in a single piece (chip) of semiconductor material.
In 1958, Jack S. Kilby
(Texas Instruments)
showed that it was
possible to fabricate a
simple IC in germanium.

In 1959, Robert Noyce

(Fairchild Semiconductor)
demonstrated an IC made in
silicon using SiO2 as the
insulator and Al for the
metallic interconnects.

The first planar IC

(actual size: 0.06 in. diameter)

From a Few, to Billions

By connecting a large number of components, each
performing simple operations, an IC that performs
very complex tasks can be built.
The degree of integration has increased at an
exponential pace over the past ~40 years.
The number of devices on a chip doubles
every ~18 months, for the same price.

Digital or Analog Signal?

X1(t) is operating at 100Mb/s and X2(t) is operating at

1Gb/s.
A digital signal operating at very high frequency is very
analog.
