The <a href="/wiki/Pinout" title="Pinout">pinouts</a> are the dark circles surrounding the integrated circuit.</figcaption></figure> <p>An <b>integrated circuit</b> (<b>IC</b>), also known as a <b>microchip</b>, <b>computer chip</b>, or simply <b>chip</b>, is a small electronic device made up of multiple interconnected electronic components such as <a href="/wiki/Transistor" title="Transistor">transistors</a>, <a href="/wiki/Resistor" title="Resistor">resistors</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Capacitor" title="Capacitor">capacitors</a>. These components are etched onto a small piece of <a href="/wiki/Semiconductor" title="Semiconductor">semiconductor</a> material, usually <a href="/wiki/Silicon" title="Silicon">silicon</a>. Integrated circuits are used in a wide range of electronic devices, including <a href="/wiki/Computer" title="Computer">computers</a>, <a href="/wiki/Smartphone" title="Smartphone">smartphones</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Television" title="Television">televisions</a>, to perform various functions such as processing and storing information. They have greatly impacted the field of electronics by enabling device miniaturization and enhanced functionality. </p><p>Integrated circuits are orders of magnitude smaller, faster, and less expensive than those constructed of discrete components, allowing a large <a href="/wiki/Transistor_count" title="Transistor count">transistor count</a>. </p><p>The IC's <a href="/wiki/Mass_production" title="Mass production">mass production</a> capability, reliability, and building-block approach to <a href="/wiki/Integrated_circuit_design" title="Integrated circuit design">integrated circuit design</a> have ensured the rapid adoption of standardized ICs in place of designs using discrete transistors. ICs are now used in virtually all electronic equipment and have revolutionized the world of <a href="/wiki/Electronics" title="Electronics">electronics</a>. Computers, mobile phones, and other <a href="/wiki/Home_appliance" title="Home appliance">home appliances</a> are now essential parts of the structure of modern societies, made possible by the small size and low cost of ICs such as modern <a href="/wiki/Computer_processor" class="mw-redirect" title="Computer processor">computer processors</a> and <a href="/wiki/Microcontroller" title="Microcontroller">microcontrollers</a>. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Very-large-scale_integration" title="Very-large-scale integration">Very-large-scale integration</a> was made practical by technological advancements in <a href="/wiki/Semiconductor_device_fabrication" title="Semiconductor device fabrication">semiconductor device fabrication</a>. Since their origins in the 1960s, the size, speed, and capacity of chips have progressed enormously, driven by technical advances that fit more and more transistors on chips of the same size – a modern chip may have many billions of transistors in an area the size of a human fingernail. These advances, roughly following <a href="/wiki/Moore%27s_law" title="Moore's law">Moore's law</a>, make the computer chips of today possess millions of times the capacity and thousands of times the speed of the computer chips of the early 1970s. </p><p>ICs have three main advantages over circuits constructed out of discrete components: size, cost and performance. The size and cost is low because the chips, with all their components, are printed as a unit by <a href="/wiki/Photolithography" title="Photolithography">photolithography</a> rather than being constructed one transistor at a time. Furthermore, packaged ICs use much less material than discrete circuits. Performance is high because the IC's components switch quickly and consume comparatively little power because of their small size and proximity. The main disadvantage of ICs is the high initial cost of designing them and the enormous capital cost of factory construction. This high initial cost means ICs are only commercially viable when <a href="/wiki/Economies_of_scale" title="Economies of scale">high production volumes</a> are anticipated. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Terminology">Terminology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Integrated_circuit&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Terminology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div><p> An <i>integrated circuit</i> is defined as:<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><blockquote><p>A circuit in which all or some of the circuit elements are inseparably associated and electrically interconnected so that it is considered to be indivisible for the purposes of construction and commerce.</p></blockquote><p> In strict usage, <i>integrated circuit</i> refers to the single-piece circuit construction originally known as a <i>monolithic integrated circuit</i>, which comprises a single piece of silicon.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In general usage, circuits not meeting this strict definition are sometimes referred to as ICs, which are constructed using many different technologies, e.g. <a href="/wiki/3D_IC" class="mw-redirect" title="3D IC">3D IC</a>, <a href="/wiki/2.5D_integrated_circuit" title="2.5D integrated circuit">2.5D IC</a>, <a href="/wiki/Multi-chip_module" title="Multi-chip module">MCM</a>, <a href="/wiki/Thin-film_transistor" title="Thin-film transistor">thin-film transistors</a>, <a href="/wiki/Thick-film_technology" title="Thick-film technology">thick-film technologies</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Hybrid_integrated_circuit" title="Hybrid integrated circuit">hybrid integrated circuits</a>.

In an FCBGA package, the die is mounted upside-down (flipped) and connects to the package balls via a package substrate that is similar to a printed-circuit board rather than by wires. FCBGA packages allow an array of <a href="/wiki/Input/output" title="Input/output">input-output</a> signals (called Area-I/O) to be distributed over the entire die rather than being confined to the die periphery.

The design of such a device can be complex and costly, and whilst performance benefits can be had from integrating all needed components on one die, the cost of licensing and developing a one-die machine still outweigh having separate devices. With appropriate licensing, these drawbacks are offset by lower manufacturing and assembly costs and by a greatly reduced power budget: because signals among the components are kept on-die, much less power is required (see <a href="#Packaging">Packaging</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-121" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-121"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>121<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Further, signal sources and destinations are <a href="/wiki/Locality_of_reference" title="Locality of reference">physically closer</a> on die, reducing the length of wiring and therefore <a href="/wiki/Latency_(engineering)" title="Latency (engineering)">latency</a>, <a href="/wiki/Data_transmission" class="mw-redirect" title="Data transmission">transmission</a> power costs and <a href="/wiki/Waste_heat" title="Waste heat">waste heat</a> from communication between modules on the same chip.
