Best Answer

An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit (also referred to as an IC, a chip, or a microchip) is an electronic circuit on one small plate ("chip") of semiconductor material, normally silicon. Such a circuit can be made very compact, having up to several billion transistors and other electronic components. The width of each conductor (the line width) can be made smaller and smaller as the technology advances, and can now (in 2012) be expressed as a two-digit number of nanometers.
