In an integrated circuit, electronic components such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, and transistors are formed directly onto the surface of a silicon crystal. The process of manufacturing an integrated circuit will make more sense if one first understands some of the basics of how these components are formed.
Even before the first IC was developed, it was known that common electronic components could be made from silicon. The question was how to make them, and the connecting circuits, from the same piece of silicon? The solution was to alter, the chemical composition of tiny areas on the silicon crystal surface by adding other chemicals, called dopants. Some dopants bond with the silicon to produce regions where the dopant atoms have one electron they can give up. These are called N regions. Other dopants bond with the silicon to produce regions where the dopant atoms have room to take one electron. These are called P regions. When a P region touches an N region, the boundary between them is referred to . This boundary is only 0.000004 inches (0.0001 cm) wide, but is crucial to the operation of integrated circuit components.

How do you read the code of an integrated circuit?
Code on an integrated circuit includes four common sections: the manufacturer's name or logo, the part number, a part production batch number, and a four-digit code that identifies when the chip was manufactured. The manufacturing date is commonly represented as a two-digit year followed by a two-digit week code.

What is integrated resistor?
An integrated resistor is a resistor that is manufactured directly onto an integrated circuit (IC) chip. By integrating the resistor onto the chip, space is saved and electrical performance is improved due to shorter connections. Integrated resistors are commonly used in various electronic devices to help control current and voltage levels.

Do the integrated circuit and the microchip go together?
An integrated circuit can be either monolithic (all on one piece of semiconductor) or hybrid (several separate components attached to a tiny ceramic circuit board). A microchip is another name for a monolithic integrated circuit.
Integrated circuit is digital or analog?
An IC can be either an analog device or a digital device. Today, in early 2014, I think it's accurate to say that the vast majority of integrated circuits being manufactured and installed in electronic things now are digital.
What is abbreviation of IC?
Integrated Circuit.
