DESCRIPTION:Who Invented the Integrated Circuit?\n\nGene Freeman\, Chair IE
 EE PPCS\n\nIEEE Life Member\n\nThe integrated circuit is one of the greate
 st inventions of the 20th century and continues its dominance as an electr
 onic packaging technology in the 21st Century.\n\nThis talk focusses on it
 s beginnings and looks at the controversies around attribution of “who w
 as first?”\n\nWe start with the invention of the transistor in the 1940
 ’s at Bell Labs.  We then talk about the motivation for the Integrated C
 ircuit and look at the implementation approaches.  Finally\, we examine th
 e Integrated Circuit patent fight between Texas Instruments and Fairchild 
 Semiconductor. We conclude with the Nobel Prize awarded to Jack Kilby from
  Texas Instruments in the year 2000. As a special bonus we find out what K
 ilby’s prototype was worth in 2014.\n\nSpeaker(s):  \, \n\nColorado Spri
