Initially the integrated circuits contained only about ten to twenty components. This technology is known as SSI (Small Scale Integration). Later with the advancement in technology for manufacturing Ics, it became possible to integrate up to a hundred components on one single chip. This technology is know as MSI (Medium Scale Intergration). Then came the era of large scale integration (LSI), when it is possible to integrate over 30,000 components on once single chip. More advanced technologies like Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) and Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) made possible the development of sophosticated, compact, handhel multi functioning devices with easy interface for interaction.
Advantages:
- Smallest in size because of density.
- Very reliable and faster computation speed than previous generation.
- Negligible hardware failure and cheapest.
- Totally general purpose, wide range of use and portable.
