 Third Generation Computers
(1965-1971)

In 1959, Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce (who was later to become the cofounder
of Intel Corp.) developed the first integrated circuit (silicon chip or microchip).
01

The computer of this period used Integrated Circuits (ICs)

in place of transistors.

An IC or monolithic integrated circuit is a set of electronic circuits on

one small flat piece of semiconductor material that is normally silicon
 Third Generation Computers
(1965-1971)

It is a way of placing multiple (millions) transistor devices into as

single, smaller device, the microchip.
01

Implemented in the mid 1960’s with many improvements made by IBM

(International Business Machines) researchers.

Processing and short-term memory for "work in progress"

used by the computer came to be purely electronic.
IBM
System/360
It is the first line
computers in the
world to allow
machine language
programs to be
written that could be
used across a broad
range of compatible
sizes.
CDC 6600
It had the fastest
clock speed of its
day (100
nanoseconds). It was
one of the first
computers to use
Freon refrigerant
cooling and was also
the first commercial
computer to use a
CRT console.
Honeywell
6000
It was a series of 36-
bit mainframe
computers.
- long-lived family of
mainframes.
- 1970-1989
- Multics run
PDP (Programmed
Data Processor)
- 1960 by Digital
Equipment Corporation
- First iteration of a
personal computing
device
- Powerful and dynamic
for its size
- Has series (PDP-1 to
PDP-15)
TDC-316
- Torpedo Data
Computer
- Electromechanical
analog computer
- Used for torpedo fire
control
- Bulky addition to the
sub’s conning tower
IBM 370
- June 30, 1970
- Successor of IBM 360
- Allow easy migration
path for customers
- On September 1990,
replaced by IBM 390
Intel 4004
It is a 4-bit central
processing unit
released by Intel
Corporation in 1971.
It was design for
use in calculators,
automated teller
machines and
cash machines.
Intel 8008
- 8-bit processor
- Powered the
first personal
microcomputers
Intel 4004
Microprocessor
- first commercial large-
scale-integrated
microprocessor on a
single chip containing
2,300 transistors, 4-bit
logic and able to
address 640 bytes of
memory
Magnetic Tape Selectric
Typewriter
Released on July 31,
1961, the Selectric
typewriter transformed
the speed, accuracy
and flexibility with
which people could
generate the written
word.
IBM 305
RAMAC
- Random Access Memory
Accounting
- First fixed disk system
- Flexible, electronic,
general purpose data
processing machine that
enabled businesses to
record transactions and
reflect each entry in
affected accounts.
IBM 1311
- Removable magnetic
disk storage
- Hastened the end of
the punched card era
- Less expensive
Advantages

01 Smaller in size

02 Generates less heat

03 It can perform calculations in nanoseconds

Advantages

04 Maintenance cost was low

05 Consumes less power

06 More reliable
Advantages

07 Totally general purpose

08 Low cost

09 Good storage
Disadvantages

01 Air conditioning was required

Highly sophisticated technology required for

02 the manufacturing of IC chips

03 Tactile sensitivity is decreased
