Best Answer

The standard way is to solder a fly lead onto the broken leg rather than trying to create a new leg which will usually either be too thick or too fragile to be serviceable. By soldering a thin wire to the leg you can then form the other end of the wire into a tip, again using solder, so that it can be inserted into the socket.

What was the first computer to use computer chips ( made out of transistors?

All computer chips have been made out of transistors, you cannot make them out of vacuum tubes. The first monolithic IC chip (see image above) was made at Texas Instruments in 1958 on a bar of germanium (not silicon), it was a simple audio amplifier. The first digital logic monolithic IC chips were built around 1961 or 1962.

Why an IC is not working?

This question would be easier to answer if the type of IC was specified.But generally, there are 3 reasons an IC will not work:1. It is broken. If a large voltage or shock has been applied to it, or the power hooked up to it in reverse, an IC will usually burn out. This may or may not be accompanied with the release of the Magic Blue Smoke. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_smoke)2. Your power supply is dead or not outputting enough voltage. If the voltage supplied is too low for the IC to use, it may not function properly or at all. Check the power supply.3. The circuit the IC is in is broken. Check all the wires/solder points. Test the IC in a known working circuit.
