In this section you can see some unfinished chips and semiconductors. From many I don't know their ancestry or from which manufacturer
they are, but this stuff is very nice to look at! If anyone knows details of some chips and items, so please let us know, we all would be very thankful for
any information's!
The history of chips is very interesting but a relatively new invention. The idea wasn't conceived until the mid 1950's by a radar scientist working for the
Royal Radar establishment of the British Ministry of Defence. It is amazing to think that due to a tiny chip we now can do incredible things like search the
internet for almost any information, play games such as online bingo and read a whole novel off a computer screen.
With all technological things it is always being developed, that is why I enjoy my collection of vintage chips to appreciate where it has come from,
as things are always rapidly changing. I am really proud of my rare collection and I hope that you too will get some pleasure from it. Hopefully, if you didn't
previously know a lot about chips you will learn something here too.
