HISTORYHISTORY

With the invention of transistors in BELL With the invention of transistors in BELL laboratories is the basic pillar of an IC.laboratories is the basic pillar of an IC.

Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments found a solution to this problem in 1958. Kilby presented his idea to his superiors, and was allowed to build a test version of his circuit. In September 1958, he had his first integrated circuit ready.Although the first integrated circuit was crude and had some problems, the idea was groundbreaking. By making all the parts out of the same block of material and adding the metal needed to connect them as a layer on top of it, there was no need for discrete components. No more wires and components had to be assembled manually. The circuits could be made smaller, and the manufacturing process could be automated.

DEVELOPMENTSDEVELOPMENTS

The first IC developed by JACK KILLBY The first IC developed by JACK KILLBY was 5 transistors on single board,but now was 5 transistors on single board,but now it was developed upto 976 million it was developed upto 976 million transistors in single processor(INTEL i7P)transistors in single processor(INTEL i7P)

The first semiconductor chips held two transistors each. The first semiconductor chips held two transistors each. Subsequent advances added more transistors, and as a Subsequent advances added more transistors, and as a consequence, more individual functions or systems were consequence, more individual functions or systems were integrated over time. integrated over time.

The first integrated circuits held only a few devices, The first integrated circuits held only a few devices, perhaps as many as ten diodes, transistors, resistors and perhaps as many as ten diodes, transistors, resistors and capacitors, making it possible to fabricate one or more capacitors, making it possible to fabricate one or more logic gates on a single device.logic gates on a single device.

Now known retrospectively as small-scale integration Now known retrospectively as small-scale integration (SSI), improvements in technique led to devices with (SSI), improvements in technique led to devices with hundreds of logic gates, known as medium-scale hundreds of logic gates, known as medium-scale integration (MSI). integration (MSI).

Further improvements led to large-scale integration (LSI), Further improvements led to large-scale integration (LSI), i.e. systems with at least a thousand logic gates. Current i.e. systems with at least a thousand logic gates. Current technology has moved far past this mark and today's technology has moved far past this mark and today's microprocessors have many millions of gates and billions microprocessors have many millions of gates and billions of individual transistors.of individual transistors.

As of early 2008, billion-transistor processors are As of early 2008, billion-transistor processors are commercially available. This became more commercially available. This became more commonplace as semiconductor fabrication advanced commonplace as semiconductor fabrication advanced from the then-current generation of 65 nm processes. from the then-current generation of 65 nm processes.

Current designs, unlike the earliest devices, use Current designs, unlike the earliest devices, use extensive design automation and automated logic extensive design automation and automated logic synthesis to lay out the transistors, enabling higher synthesis to lay out the transistors, enabling higher levels of complexity in the resulting logic functionality. levels of complexity in the resulting logic functionality.
