Invention of a humble silicon chip or integrated circuit
The Silicon Valley went from being called “The Valley of
hearts Delight” in its orchard days, to being called “The Silicon valley”
because of the invention of a humble silicon chip or integrated circuit
using silicon crystal as the basic raw material. This chip’s size was 7/16 by 1/16
inches in size revolutionized our valley.
