How many transistors did the ENIAC have?
Eniac didn't have any transistors. It was built with 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7,200 crystal diodes, and a whole host of other components. But no transistors. The first transistor was created in November, 1947, almost two years after Eniac was completed.
How many 21 foot scaffold tubes are in a tonne?
30
How many states can a vacuum tube have?
2 states
Is semiconductor diode better than vacuum diode?
at thebeginning of electronic technology the vacuum tube was used in electronic circuit. .but now a days semiconductors are used in electronic circuit
How many simple machines are in a vacuum cleaner?

How many vacuum tubes in first generation computer?
ENIAC was the first digital general purpose computer, built in 1946, and with 17,468 vacuum tubes. The Illiac I, the first computer built and owned by a US educational institution, had 2800 vacuum tubes. The IBM 604 had about 2000 vacuum tubes.
How many vacuum tubes did the first generation computer have?
Oh yes - and for several generations after that. ENIAC, the first mainframe computer, had to be kept in a room with very heavy air conditioning (about 60 degrees) because of the heat generated by all the vacuum tubes.
What was the size of the UNIVAC computer?
There have been many UNIVAC computers over the years, from the UNIVAC I to the Sperry UNIVAC 1100 series machines and beyond. Can you be more specific?
How many vocum tubes were in the eniac?
The ENIAC has 17,468 vacuum tubes. These tubes were the first technology that made computers function. Modern computers do not use this technology.
What replaced vacuum tubes in the computer?
Integrated circuits (in many microprocessor integrated circuits) containing many billions of transistors each.
How many vacuum tubes were in the Mark IV?
The Harvard Mark IV had about 4000 tubes.
The full meaning of UNIVAC in computer?
The UNIVAC I (UNIVersal Automatic Computer I) was the first commercial computer produced in the United States. It was also the name of a business unit and division of the Remington Rand company formed by the 1950 purchase of the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation.
How big is the UNIVAC?
There have been many UNIVAC computers over the years, from the UNIVAC I to the Sperry UNIVAC 1100 series machines and beyond. Can you be more specific?
What were the early computer tubes called?
Generally, they were called Vacuum Tubes. There were many different kinds and models, such as the Selectron, and Williams Tube. Their purpose was to store data by using a complex electro-magnetic electron transferral process. This allowed them to store very small amounts of data per tube. Since they were electrically driven, cutting the power on them would cause data loss- the computer had to be on 24/7. Later developments of the technology solved this problem. There were also non-tube based memories such as UNIVAC's Mercury Delay Line Memory, Piezoelectric crystal memory, magnetorestrictive coils, bubble memory, drum memory, twistor memory, and the most popular Core memory, or Magnetic Core memory.
How many vacuum tubes did the Harvard Mark I computer have?
None. The Harvard Mark 1 ASCC (IBM Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator) was an electromechanical computer built for Harvard by IBM's Endicott NY facility in 1944. It was constructed from 765,000 components which included switches, relays, motors, rotating shafts, and clutches. It contained no vacuum tubes.The Harvard Mark III ADEC (Aiken Dahlgren Electronic Calculator) was the first computer to use vacuum tubes. It was built at Harvard in 1949 using 5000 vacuum tubes and 1500 crystal diodes, along with electromechanical components. The Harvard Mark IV, built in 1952, was the first fully electronic design.
What are the benefits of vacuum tubes?
vacuum tubes help us today with many things. the most important 1 is techology. If we didn't have vacuum tubes we wouldn't have computers. just thik of a life with out computers or t.v. vacuum tubes are also used in radios. so if vacuum tubes hadn't been invented we would not be able to use all the techology we use today.=]
How much did the UNIVAC 1 cost?
The UNIVAC 1, which was the first commercially produced computer in the United States, cost around $1.25 million in the early 1950s. Adjusted for inflation, this would be equivalent to roughly $12 million in today's currency. The high cost of the UNIVAC 1 made it prohibitive for many organizations, but its groundbreaking technology paved the way for the modern computer era.
