IC or integrated circuit sometimes called a cheap or microchip is a semiconductor on which thousands for millions of tiny resistor capacitors and transistors are fabricated.
The IC can function as an amplifier, oscillator, timer, counter, computer memory for microprocessor and wireless data transfer and so more.
Comedy commonly we can see the Ic’s in a black plastic package with the number of pins.
The ICS can be named us LM 328, 555 SG 3525, AT mega 328 p, and lot more.
The different IC having a different function in the electronic circuits.
The integrated circuit can simplify the electronic circuits and reduce the cost of the electronic devices. In the old days, the transistors are mostly used to build electronic circuits. That leads to high power usage and need more space to store. In this days the IC optimize the error. They produce the space and workload of the circuit.
In common the IC numbering can be established according to the dot present at the left corner of the Integrated circuit and we start numbering 1to so on.
The most common Integrated circuit is using in hobby electronics circuits are
