Originally "miniaturization" simply meant replacing light-bulb-sized tubes with jelly-bean-sized transistors. But a second breakthrough occurred in the 1960s, when engineers realized that the same technology used to create a single transistor on a semiconductor wafer could be used to create many interconnected transistors. Over time, engineers learned to put dozens, hundreds, thousand, and eventually millions of transistors onto a single chip, launching the "digital revolution."

==Fundies don't know shit about engineering==

yet they're usin da internet how can this be (ps our ability to make these devices stems from quantum mechanics which you'll all surely deny up and down profusely so way to be hypocrites)

the words base and emitter don't even appear on this page D:
