What else can I help you with?
Did Alan Turing made the vacuum tubes computers?
No, he had to use mechanical gears, etc. because they were the only device technology available in his time. Electric relays were first developed about 15 years after he designed his computer, while vacuum tubes were first developed about 90 years after he designed his computer.
Why the first-generation of computer use vacuum tubes?
The first digital computer that used vacuum tubes was the ABC, completed in 1942 by Dr. John Vincent Atanasoff and Clifford Berry in Ames, IA.An early analog computer that used vacuum tubes was the Differential Analyzer, completed in 1929 by Vannevar Bush and a large team at MIT. (there probably were other smaller analog computers of this type that used vacuum tubes before this, so it probably isn't the first but its the earliest where I can find it clearly documented).
Why were the ABC and ENIAC considered first generation computers?
They are first generation computers because they used vacuum tubes as active elements, as did almost all computers until 1958 when the first generation is usually considered to have ended. From 1958 on most computers used discrete transistors as active elements until 1964.Note: ABC & ENIAC are both very early first generation computers as they used ordinary Radio receiver vacuum tubes, not the more expensive Computervacuum tubes that were introduced about 1948 to 1949. The later Computer vacuum tubes were custom redesigned versions and were far more reliable than ordinary Radio vacuum tubes had been.
Was a Microcomputer part of the first generation?
no, first generation computers used vacuum tubes.
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 are in the Univac I computer?
It used 5200 vacuum tubes.
What theorem is used in vacuum tubes?
Millman's theorem
What do you call the vacuum tubes used in transistor radios?
You don't, there aren't any. However some radios in the early 1950s did use both vacuum tubes and transistors. This was because early junction transistors were too slow to operate at RF so vacuum tubes were used in the RF and IF sections. These radios were called hybrid radios because they used both vacuum tubes and transistors.
What computers will used vacuum tubes?
First generation computers.
What generation was vacuum tubes used?

Neon is used in the making of?

Did Alan Turing made the vacuum tubes computers?
No, he had to use mechanical gears, etc. because they were the only device technology available in his time. Electric relays were first developed about 15 years after he designed his computer, while vacuum tubes were first developed about 90 years after he designed his computer.
What is vacuum tubes define?
Vacuum tubes are electronic devices that control the flow of electrons in a vacuum. They were widely used in early computer and radio technology before being replaced by transistors. Vacuum tubes can amplify signals and are known for their warm, vintage sound in audio equipment.
What are vacuum tubes and transistors?
They are devices that are used to control the flow of current.
What was the element neon used for in the past?
they use it neon lights, vacuum tubes, television tubes, lasers, and as a refrigerant
