It was in 1958.

Jack KilbyandRobert Noycein1958 Invented theIntegrated Circuits.
It has a chip inside that receives same signal as a phone line. Just plug it into the wall or you can use the computer to plug it in to.
The first integrated circuit chip was invented by Jack Kilby working at Texas Instruments in 1958. However it was made of germanium and although it integrated all the components into one chip, the interconnections between them had to be made individually by hand under a microscope. The first prototype integrated circuit he produced was a one transistor analog RC oscillator.The first practical integrated circuit chip was invented by Robert Noyce working at Fairchild Semiconductor in 1959. It was made of silicon and using Fairchild's new planar process developed for making individual transistors, integrated not only all components but also the interconnections; as well as passivating the chip making hermetic sealed packages unnecessary, permitting the use of cheaper plastic packages. The first prototype integrated circuit he produced (in early 1960) was a four transistor Direct Coupled Transistor Logic (DCTL) flip-flop.The first commercially available microprocessor integrated circuit was invented by Federico Faggin, Marcian "Ted" Hoff, and Masatoshi Shima working at Intel in 1971.
There are actually two individuals who played a large part in building the first computer chip. Their names are Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce.
No, Jack Kilby did.

according to my teacher jack kilby is not responsible for the breakthrough of the micro chip.
The silicon chip was invented in 1961. It was invented by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce, and it revolutionized miniature technology.
