What generation is a DEC minicomputer?

The DEC minicomputer belongs to the second generation of computers, which spanned from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s. Unlike first-generation computers that used vacuum tubes, second-generation systems employed transistors, allowing for smaller size, greater reliability, and improved performance. DEC's PDP series, particularly the PDP-8 and PDP-11, were notable examples of minicomputers that played a significant role in this era.
