Milestones in the Computer History

1. Invention of the Vacuum Tube (Electron Lamb) 1930

After invention of the Vacuum Tubes, the first electronic computer was built.

Milestones in the Computer History

2. Invention of the Transistors. 1959
After invention of the Transistor, more smaller computer was able to built. Because transistor is smaller than the vacuum tube. Also a transistor consumes less energy and can operate faster than a vacuum tubes.

3. Invention of the Integrated Circuits, IC (Electronic Chips). 1965
Because An Integrated Circuit is made up of the thousands of the transistors it was able to manufacture more and more smaller computers.

4. Invention of Microprocessors (Microchips). 1971
After the invention of the Microchips, Personal Computer was able to be produced. Because A Microchip is made up of the millions of the transistors it was able to be manufactured portable computers.
In year 2001 Pentium 4 has 42 millions transistors In year 2004 Pentium 4 EE 169 millions transistors
