Title
Who's the lead programmer?
Description
"Kilby's 1958 invention of the integrated circuit changed the face of the world. Until the integrated circuit, electronics were created with large, fragile components. After Kilby's invention, electronics were able to become more complex, reliable, efficient and miniaturized. The invention made the microprocessor possible.
Kilby built the first integrated circuit using borrowed equipment during his first year at Texas Instruments. The component was built into a piece of semiconducting material smaller than a paper clip. By 1962, four years later, Texas Instruments had won its first major contract for integrated circuits for the Minuteman missile."
Kirill is an Uptilt legend and I thought with all the new people we have that his story, at least from my perspective, is one that should be know.
