Microelectronics

• Literally - "small electronics".
• Computer formed from the gate collection, a collection of memory and interkoneksinya.
• Can be made with the semiconductor.
• Example: silicon wafer (Silicon wafer).
  

Generation of Computer

• Vacuum tube - 1946-1957.
• Transistor - 1958-1964.
• Small scale Integration - on 1965.
• Up to 100 devices on a chip.
• Medium scale Integration - to 1971.
• 100-3,000 devices on a chip.
• Large scale Integration - 1971-1977.
• 3,000 - 100,000 devices on a chip.
• Very large scale Integration - 1978 to date.
• 100,000 - 100,000,000 devices on a chip.
• Ultra large scale Integration.
• Over 100,000,000 devices on a chip.
