microprocessor. The roots of this development can be traced directly back to the inventors of the transistor. In 1955‚ William Shockley founded Shockley Semiconductor in Palo Alto‚ California (arguably the birth of Silicon Valley). This company eventually employed Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce‚ who left with others to form Fairchild Semiconductor in 1957. While at Fairchild‚ Noyce played a significant role in the development of he IC‚ first commercially available in 1961. In 1968‚ Moore and Noyce
