Paper review CRAMMING MORE COMPONENTS ONTO INTEGRATED CIRCUITS “With unit cost falling as the number of components per circuit rises, by 1975 economics may dictate squeezing as many as 65000 component on a single silicon chip.” - Gordon E. Moore A simple observation made over 30 years ago, on the growth in the number of devices per silicon die has become a central driving force of one of the most dynamic of the world’s industries . 1.1 BIRTH OF MOORES LAW Moore predicted the domination of integrated circuits in the field of modern electronics. On the basis of the trending decline in the falling unit cost of components per circuit which stands true to the test of time and proves preciseness of his prediction when we take a look at the present electronic scenario. 1.2 MOORES PREDICTION AND PRESENT SCENARIO Gordon Moore predicted the future of the integrated electronics. According to him the computers would become more powerful and organized. Also memories will be distributed throughout the machine rather than being concentrated in a central unit providing reliability and construction of larger processing units. At that time though integrated circuits were not that popular and were only used in new military systems. But projects like Apollo proved the reliability of integrated electronics at that time. He also proposed the various advantages of the integrated electronic circuits. Lower Cost Reliability Compactness Reduced Weight
