Microfluidic integrated circuits have been originated by the researchers of University of Michigan as a technique to make simple lab-on-a-chip devices that could offer faster, low-cost and more portable medical tests. These microfluidic circuits control the flowing of fluid through their devices without directions from outside systems. This process is similar to the computer chips […]

Integrated circuits (ICs) are considered as a foundation of present-day electronics. They are the cornerstones of most circuits. These are the omnipresent tiny black “chips” which come into view on just about every circuit board. If you are not some kind of insane, analog electronics wizard, perhaps you will have at least one IC in […]

A schematic design or a hardware description language (HDL) is provided by the user to define the behavior of the FPGA. The HDL form should be used to work with huge structures because it is feasible to exactly specify them by numbers rather than having to draw every piece manually. On the other hand, simpler […]

In the electronics hierarchy, integrated circuits (IC) can either be considered as the base or the apex and both of these positions are conceivably correct. Being the initial point, primary building block and foundation for majority of modern electronic systems, the IC also stands for the crest in terms of electronic device (i.e. transistor) density. […]

Like transistors and computer chips, integrated circuits (ICs) are encased (hermetically sealed) by packages to keep safe the inner chip’s circuitry from tangible impairment and from any kind of defilement like moisture and dust. For allowing convenient handling and assembly onto printed circuit boards and for keeping safe the devices from any possible damage, integrated […]

IC design or Integrated Circuit design is a sub-category of electronic engineering, encircling the specific logic and circuit design techniques needed to design integrated circuits, or ICs. ICs comprise small-scale electronic components such as resistors, transistors, capacitors, etc. fabricated into an electrical grid on a monolithic semiconductor. Digital and analog IC designs are the two […]

IC (Integrated Circuit) means an assemblage of electronic components such as resistors, transistors, capacitors, etc. All these are crammed into a very small chip and attached with each other to acquire a common objective. The IC package is what encases the die of integrated circuit and extends it out into a device we can more […]

Semiconductor Devices which are founded around a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs) and linked through programmable interconnects known as Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). These semiconductors can be reprogrammed for the intended applications and operational necessities after manufacture. Because of this distinctive feature, FPGAs are different from Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). ASICs are […]

Over time, the contamination control requirements in the semiconductor industry have become more stringent. Employees now must spend more time adhering to cleaning protocols to preserve the sanitary nature of the environment and comply with regulations. The front-end unified pod (or FOUP) began appearing in semiconductors in the 1990s, serving as a transportation box to […]

A total chip or even the entire device can collapse, if just one very small circuit within an integrated chip stops working or fails. Wouldn’t it be fantastic, if it could repair itself, and repair itself so quickly that the user never realized there was a fault? A self-healing system has been developed by a […]
