Fairchild Semiconductor was founded in 1957 by the Traitorous Eight after leaving Shockley Lab and pioneered transistors and ICs in the 1960s, shaping the industry. It underwent multiple ownership changes, including acquisitions by Schlumberger in 1979, National Semiconductor in 1987, a spin-off to independence in 1997, and finally ON Semiconductor in 2016.

Fairchild Timeline

1957: Founded by Traitorous Eight Traitorous Eight left Shockley Lab to establish Fairchild Semiconductor. 1960s: Pioneered Transistors & ICs Led breakthroughs in transistors and integrated circuits, shaping semiconductor industry. 1979: Acquired by Schlumberger Fairchild acquired by Schlumberger, marking shift in company ownership. 1987: Sold to National Semiconductor Transferred to National Semiconductor after Schlumberger divestiture. 1997: Spun Off Independent Regained independence as standalone semiconductor company. 2016: Acquired by ON Semiconductor ON Semiconductor acquires Fairchild, expanding portfolio in power management.
