An Integrated Circuit (IC), often referred to as a microchip or simply a chip, is a miniaturized electronic device that has revolutionized modern technology.
It is essentially a complete electronic circuit fabricated onto a single, tiny, flat piece of semiconductor material, most commonly silicon.
🔬 What an IC Is
An IC combines thousands, millions, or even billions of interconnected electronic components onto a chip smaller than a fingernail. These components include:
Transistors: The fundamental building blocks that act as electronic switches.
Resistors: Components that resist the flow of electric current.
