On February 6, 1959, Jack Kilby from Texas Instruments filed a patent for the first ever integrated circuit, an invention ...

As the saying goes, hindsight is 20/20. It may surprise you that the microchip that we all know and love today was far from an obvious idea. Some of the paths that were being explored back then to ...

The process of designing, manufacturing, and testing ICs is complex and exhaustive. The main contributors are the design and verification teams, IP vendors, and IC manufacturers. The process of ...

ASICs boost performance and reduce energy for specific tasks better than general chips. They vary in design from semi-custom to fully specialized, affecting cost and performance. Tech giants like ...

The pedagogical model of the integrated circuit goes something like this: take a silicone wafer, etch out a few wells, dope some of the silicon with phosphorous, mask some of the chip off, dope some ...

When you want to find your way while jogging, there is no need to take out your phone. This is because arrows appear on the ...

As experimental quantum information processing (QIP) rapidly advances, an emerging challenge is to design a scalable architecture that combines various quantum elements into a complex device without ...

Expansion in semiconductor fabrication, industrial automation, and IC innovations like AI-optimized architectures present ...

Engineers in Sydney have demonstrated a quantum integrated circuit made up of just a few atoms. By precisely controlling the quantum states of the atoms, the new processor can simulate the structure ...
