Who made the microchip?
There are actually two individuals who played a large part in building the first computer chip. Their names are Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce.
Who invented the digital chip?
Several individuals developed circuitry that lead up to the Integrated Circuit as we know it today, starting as far back as 1949. The computer chip was developed in the late 1950s by two different researchers working independently of each other. Jack Kilby (1923- ) developed a chip at Texas Instruments in 1958, using Germanium, and Robert Noyce (1927-1990) invented a similar device at Fairchild Semiconductor in 1959, using Silicon. Jack Kilby has been recognized with a Noble Prize for his efforts.
What were the fielding stats for baseball player Brad Kilby playing at pitcher for the Oakland Athletics in 2010?
Brad Kilby played in 5 games at pitcher for the Oakland Athletics in 2010, starting in none of them. He played for a total of 25 outs, equivalent to .93 9-inning games. He made no putouts, had no assists, and committed no errors, equivalent to 0 errors per 9-inning game. He had no double plays.
How did Jack Kilby help to progress of computers?
He invented a monolithic integrated circuit using germanium in 1958. While it proved the concept of the monolithic integrated circuit, unfortunately it was not practical for commercial production and sale as the electrical connections between the integrated components on the chip had to be done entirely by hand under a microscope. The first practical monolithic integrated circuit was invented by Robert Noyce in 1959 using silicon.
Where did Jack kibly invent the microchip?
Kilby had been hired by Texas Instruments to work on "miniaturization". The first project he worked on involved constructing circuits from discrete components that could be inserted into tubular packaging. He did a cost analysis and found that the approach would be neither practical or profitable for manufacturing. His fundamental insight, during the summer of 1958, was that, considering Texas Instruments was primarily a semiconductor manufacturer (already making an enormous number of transistors), the only cost-effective way to make the components would be to make them all out of semiconductor material. He had some technicians in the lab make some resistors and capacitors in silicon. He then wired the pieces together to make a flip-flop, to demonstrate the concept. His boss, Willis Adcock, gave him the go-ahead to try to make all the components on one piece of semiconductor material. Kilby drew a sketch of a circuit (a phase-shift oscillator) and had prototypes built in the lab. It took two weeks to prepare three tiny bars of germanium containing the circuits. Each one was mounted on a glass slide. The first working circuit was tested on September 12, 1958.
What did Jack Kilby invent?
Jack Kilby invented the Integrated Circuit .
What device did Jack Kilby go on to invent that helped people value power of his ICs?
it will go to bob the bilder land and eat SpongeBob at his latest hour! or he'll go to build-a-bear land and eat a gorilla eating a potatoe eating the gorilla that's being eatin buy SpongeBob.......=)

Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit?
Jack St. Clair Kilby, with help from Robert Noyce, invented the first integrated circuit in 1958. They were employed by Texas Instruments at the time.
