  2. Minicomputer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minicomputer

    A minicomputer, or colloquially mini, is a type of smaller general-purpose computer developed in the mid-1960s [1][2] and sold at a much lower price than mainframe [3] and mid-size computers from IBM and its direct competitors. In a 1970 survey, The New York Times suggested a consensus definition of a minicomputer as a machine costing less than ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_early_microcomputers

    These microcomputers were often sold as "DIY" kits or pre-built machines in relatively small numbers in the mid-1970s. These systems were primarily used for teaching the use of microprocessors and supporting peripheral devices, and unlike home computers were rarely used with pre-written application software. Most early micros came without ...

An integrated circuit (IC), also known as a microchip, computer chip, or simply chip, is a small electronic device made up of multiple interconnected electronic components such as transistors, resistors, and capacitors.

  8. Microprocessor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microprocessor

    A microprocessor is a computer processor for which the data processing logic and control is included on a single integrated circuit (IC), or a small number of ICs. The microprocessor contains the arithmetic, logic, and control circuitry required to perform the functions of a computer's central processing unit (CPU).

  9. Microcomputer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcomputer

    A microcomputer is a small, relatively inexpensive computer having a central processing unit (CPU) made out of a microprocessor. [2] The computer also includes memory and input/output (I/O) circuitry together mounted on a printed circuit board (PCB). [3] Microcomputers became popular in the 1970s and 1980s with the advent of increasingly ...
