The development of microchip (or integrated circuits) made computers more smaller, much faster, and more powerful. Microchips allowed number of transistors to increase in chips, doubling roughly every two years in accordance to Moore’s law. They are easier to produce, requires less power, and costs lower. Microchips helped embed computer in mobile PC’s, laptop, phones, watches, and even home appliances.
