Transistorized computer
evolved from
Integrated circuits bring multiple transistors and passive components previously distributed across a circuit board onto a single chip, continuing the functional approach of transistorized logic.
Transistorized computer

Silicon transistor
depends on
Transistor computers replace vacuum-tube logic with large numbers of discrete transistors, achieving smaller size, lower power consumption, and higher reliability.
