A resistor implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. It works in an integrated circuit by reducing current flow, and to lower voltage levels within circuits.

What is super-thin slice of semiconducting material packed with microscopic circuit elements such as wires transistors capacitors logic gates and resistors?
integrated circuit
Integrated circuit?
The image shows the first integrated circuit. It was handmade by Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments in 1958 using a bar of germanium in which he formed transistors and resistors by diffusion then wired these components into a circuit by hand.

What is a complex circuit of many transistors diodes resistors capacitors and other electronic devices that are formed onto a tiny silicon chip?
monolithic integrated circuit
What are IPDs?
IPD is an abbreviation for integrated passive device, which contains capacitors, resistors, inductors, and other components on a printed-circuit board.
What is monolithic integrated circuit?
A monolithic integrated circuit is a collection of interconnected electronic devices (transistors, diodes, resistors and capacitors) all formed on the surface of a single pieceof a semiconductor crystal (usually silicon). "Monolith" means "one rock".
Why do you use resistors and capacitors in any electronic circuit?
because their effects are desired to make the circuit work
Why is integrated circuit called integrated circuit?
because it is situated on the silicon board with resistors ,transistors and wires.These three things organize electrical circuit.Integrated = mixed or combined (same usage as "integrated school" in civil rights).Circuit = electronic circuit.Integrated Circuit = combination of a variety of components into one inseparable circuit.There are 2 types of integrated circuits:Hybrid integrated circuit = ceramic printed circuit board with ultra-miniaturized components soldered to the padsMonolithic integrated circuit = one piece (i.e., single stone) circuit made of silicon (or other semiconductor crystal) with all the different types of components part of that crystal (and layers of metal plated on it to connect components)
At integrated circuit level what are the three principal constituents of a computer system?
1)Transistors 2)Capacitors 3)Resistors
What will happen if you connect identical integrated circuits in series?
Connecting integrated circuits is not the same as the much simpler cases of resistors, capacitors, inductors, motors, light bulbs, etc. Integrated circuits have designated functions, and they operate in concert with the surrounding circuit design. As such, the idea of "connecting identical integrated circuits in series" has no meaning in the general case. You would need to state what kind of integrated circuit is involved.
How many transistors on an integrated circuit?
ICs have been built with as few as two to as many as hundreds of billions of transistors. I believe the first germanium prototype IC built by Kilby may have had only one transistor (it was an integrated circuit not for having many transistors, but because it integrated both resistors and transistors into a single germanium crystal).
How do you find the resistance of a series circuit with n identical resistors?
The total resistance of resistors in series is simply the sum of the resistance values of those resistors. If the resistors are identical, then you can multiply the resistance of one of them by the number of resistors in the circuit.
