    Jack Kilby went on to pioneer military, industrial, and commercial applications of microchip technology. He headed teams that created the first military system and the first computer incorporating integrated circuits. He invented the handheld calculator (along with Jerry Merryman and James Van Tassel [7] ).

  2. Nov 19, 2023 · On September 12, 1958, Kilby demonstrated a working integrated circuit in the form of an oscillator. While primitive compared to modern microchips with billions of transistors, this first IC proved the concept and sparked the integrated circuit revolution.

  3. May 19, 2021 · Kilby, Jack St. Clair (1923–2005). Jack St. Clair Kilby, Nobel Prize-winning engineer and inventor of the first integrated circuit (or microchip), was born on November 8, 1923, in Jefferson City, Missouri. He was the eldest child of Hubert St. Clair Kilby and Melvina (Freitag) Kilby. His father soon became president of the Kansas Power Company, prompting the family to move, first to Salina ...

  4. Jun 22, 2005 · In his first job at a Milwaukee circuit designer called Centralab, Kilby began working with transistors, which were invented in 1947 by engineers at AT&T.;

  5. Apr 24, 2024 · Ten years later, long after their respective companies had cross-licensed technologies, the courts gave Kilby credit for the idea of the integrated circuit but gave Noyce the patent for his planar manufacturing process, a method for evaporating lines of conductive metal (the “wires”) directly onto a silicon chip.
