A semiconductor is a material with conductivity between that of an insulator and most metals, either due to the addition of impurities or because of its inherent atomic structure. It forms the foundation of modern electronic devices.
Manufacturer of semiconductors and computers, founded in 1947 and headquartered in Dallas, Texas. Known for developing the first working integrated circuit in 1958.
A third-generation computer is characterized by the use of integrated circuits, which marked an advancement from the transistor-based systems of the second generation and set the stage for the development of even more advanced computing systems.
