THE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT WAS INVENTED BY
JACK KILBY OF TEXAS INSTRUMENTS AND ROBERT NOYCE OF FAIRCHILD
IN 1958
THEY INDEPENDENTLY CAME UP WITH THE SAME IDEA
TO BUILD AN ENTIRE CIRCUIT ONTO A SINGLE CRYSTAL
THEY ARE BOTH VIEWED AS THE INVENTORS OF THE INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
MONOLITHIC CONCEPT AND THE INVENTIONS OF INTEGRATED CIRCUITS
BY KILBY AND NOYCE (1.2MB)

EARLY DEMAND FOR ICs
THE AIR FORCE - MINUTEMAN PROJECT
AND
NASA - APOLLO PROGRAM
THEY ACCOUNTED FOR VIRTUALLY ALL SALES IN THE EARLY 1960S
THE AMERICAN COMPUTER MARKET WOULD LATER TAKE OVER
AS THE PRIMARY DEMAND BY THE END OF THE DECADE
THE SEMICONDUCTOR BUSINESS
|
| |
THE APOLLO AGC FLIGHT COMPUTER WAS THE FIRST COMPUTER TO USE ICs
|
THANKS TO JOHN PULTORAK - YOU CAN CREATE YOUR OWN WORKING REPLICA ALMOST IDENTICAL TO THE ORIGINAL
