It was Intel and Texas Instrument which pioneered IC technology challenge. The invention of IC came from them. The Intel innovation was far more significant as it was the first attempt to integrate a full circuit. The invention of IC and microprocessor is largely credited to Robert Noyce, both Noyce of Intel and Kilby of Texas Instrument are considered co-inventors of integrated circuits.

The IC, the integrated circuit, is a complete circuit by itself. It includes transistors, CMOS, that is complementary metal-oxide semiconductor and field-effect transistors with capacitor, resistor, and other components, which are miniaturized and perform a function when used in an analog or digital circuitry. Since it is made on a silicon wafer, this miniaturized circuit consumed very little power and millions of components are packed inside.
