Robert Noyce © Kilby and Noyce were electrical engineers who in the late 1950s, working separately, invented the integrated circuit, better known as the microchip. Jack St Clair Kilby was...
Jack St. Clair Kilby (8 November 1923 - 20 June 2005) was an American electrical engineer who took part, along with Robert Noyce of Fairchild Semiconductor, in the realization of the first integrated circuit while working at Texas Instruments (TI) in 1958.
In 1990 Noyce – along with, among others, Jack Kilby and transistor inventor John Bardeen – received a "Lifetime Achievement Medal" during the bicentennial celebration of the Patent Act. Noyce received the Franklin Institute's Stuart Ballantine Medal in 1966.
Jun 20, 2005 · Independently of one another, in 1959 Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce showed that many transistors, resistors, and capacitors could be grouped on a single board of semiconductor material. The integrated circuit, or microchip, came to be a vital component in computers and other electronic equipment.
May 24, 2024 · The microchip, a groundbreaking invention in technology, was pioneered by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce. A microchip is a tiny set of interconnected electronic components, including transistors and resistors, etched onto a chip of semiconducting material like silicon.

First conceived in 1952 by Geoffrey Drummer; then first implemented by Jack Kilby on August 28 1958, who wire bonded 3 transistors together into what today would be called a system in a package (SIP) — it wasn’t until Robert Noyce merged Jean Hoerni’s planar process with the idea that the modern Integrated Circuit was invented.
