Which integrated circuits were used in the third generation of computers?
Both hybrid integrated circuits and monolithic integrated circuits were used in third generation computers. These integrated circuits contained from 4 to 100 transistors per integrated circuit. The image above shows hybrid integrated circuits of the type used in the IBM System 360 line of computers.
What replaced vacuum tubes in the computer?
Integrated circuits (in many microprocessor integrated circuits) containing many billions of transistors each.
What are the features of third generation computer?
The primary feature of third generation computers was their use of integrated circuits.
Which invention led to third generation of computer?
The Third Generation of Computers was known as Integrated Circuits. IC's was created by Mr. Jack S. Kilby. At this period of time, transistors where shrunk into smaller ones and where placed in a silicon chip. Also, a more efficient way of user input has been created. Keyboards and monitors have been used instead of punch cards and vacuum tubes.
What was inside the first modern computers that would get very hot?
The earliest electronic digital computers used hot cathode vacuum tubes. The cathodes of these tubes glowed red hot.The second generation electronic digital computers used transistors. These ran much much cooler than hot cathode vacuum tubes, but could still get warm. Even though individual transistors normally did not get hot, if the complete computer was not equipped with a cooling system it could accumulate enough heat to damage itself.The third generation electronic digital computers used bipolar integrated circuits. Due to the number of transistors in these integrated circuits, some types got hot enough to burn your skin if you touched them.Modern fourth generation electronic digital computers use field effect transistor integrated circuits and microprocessors. While these generally operate cooler than bipolar integrated circuits, often the microprocessors and a few other high speed integrated circuits can still get hot enough to burn your skin if you touched them.
Do integrated circuits have polarity?
Yes integrated circuits have polarity.

What are the disadvantages of integrated circuits?
The disadvantages of integrated circuits include the limited range of IC resistors. Another disadvantage is that inductors cannot be formed using integrated circuits.
