The first two computers to use monolithic IC chips were the Minuteman II guidance computer (1962 to 1970) and the Apollo Guidance Computer (1962 to 1975). At the time they were designed the price of the chips they used (which only contained 1 to 6 logic gates) was about $1000 per chip, by the time production of these computers was finished (roughly 1967) the price of the same chips had fallen to about $25 per chip due to improvements in fabrication methods driven by the demand of these two projects.
The rapidly declining price of monolithic IC chips over the period of the 1960s allowed many companies to introduce commercially available computers using monolithic IC chips,
The first computer to use microprocessor chips was the classified F-14 RADAR data processor in 1968 (this computer remained classified until sometime in the 1990s, so it does not appear in many books on computer history).
The first commercially available computer to use microprocessor chips was the Busicom 141-PF calculator, using the Intel 4004 microprocessor in 1971.
Geoffrey Dummer. If you mean the microprocessor chip it was designed by Marcian Ted Hoff in 1971 and manufactured by Intel as the 4004. If instead you mean the first digital IC chips used to build computers, I don't know who designed them but Texas Instruments made the chips (starting in 1962) for the Minuteman II guidance computer and Fairchild Semiconductor made the chips (starting in 1961) for the Apollo guidance computer.
The first computer to use the binary number system was probably the Z1, started by Konrad Zuse in 1936. It was a mechanical computer, not fully programmable, but is still considered a computer.

Bank of America. I typed "1959 bank computer" into Google and the first few sites that came up said that Bank of America was the first to use a computer in 1959. Pretty simple search - just 3 words. try it.
The first to use and introduce computer in Malaysia is believed to be Lembaga Letrik Negara which is today known as Tenaga Nasional (the national electricity board). It began to use computer in 1965 to process staff salary payment.
The Computer Chips first used in cars were in 1981, was in the carburetor. General Motors and Corvettes were the first pioneers in placing computer chips in cars.
All computer chips have been made out of transistors, you cannot make them out of vacuum tubes. The first monolithic IC chip (see image above) was made at Texas Instruments in 1958 on a bar of germanium (not silicon), it was a simple audio amplifier. The first digital logic monolithic IC chips were built around 1961 or 1962.
Chips! A sandwich shop sells chips, a computer has computer chips in it, and a casino has poker chips.
Computer chips are I.C.s (Integrated Circuits) exaples of which are Memory (RAM Chips) CPU Processor, Video Chips.
all phones use computer chips and microprossers
Thin ones

Computer chips are made from silicon and sand that has a high quartz content. Computer chips help to store computer memory.
Because they save large amounts of wires. MistroJoe
First of all we should grind and mix the chocolate chips,thenwe can use it.
Mcain oven chips. LOL
they are micro chips too but very low cost and low performance one's...why will someone use i7 series processor in a thermostat ?
