Unit 1 Assignment 1: Integrated Circuit Technology
Based on the reading from Moore’s Law; the number of transistors and integrated circuits double every two years.
Starting in 1971 to the present day; transistor number double or even tripled over the years. So I believe the transistor and integrated circuit technology growth is surprising fast due to how evolved technology is becoming.
From transistors and integrated circuits doubling every two years, It could be 5-15 years before it could reach 100 billion, or even one trillion transistors on a single chip.
