This title slide features the heading "Semiconductors: The Building Blocks of Electronics." Its subtitle welcomes viewers to an overview of semiconductors, covering their history, key players like Fairchild, and future impact.
Welcome to an overview of semiconductors, their history, key players like Fairchild, and future impact.
This agenda slide outlines a presentation on semiconductors with four main sections. It starts with an introduction to their properties, followed by a historical timeline featuring Fairchild Semiconductor, an industry overview with statistics and applications, and future trends plus conclusions.
What semiconductors are and their key properties.
Evolution including Fairchild Semiconductor's contributions.
Current statistics and real-world applications.
Emerging developments and final thoughts.
This slide serves as the section header for "What are Semiconductors?" (Section 01). It describes semiconductors as materials like silicon with conductivity between conductors and insulators, essential for transistors and ICs.

The timeline outlines the semiconductor industry's history, starting with Shockley Laboratory's transistor invention in the 1950s and the Traitorous Eight founding Fairchild Semiconductor in 1957. It continues with Fairchild pioneering integrated circuits in the 1960s and concludes with Schlumberger acquiring Fairchild in 1979.
1950s: Shockley Lab Develops Transistors Shockley Laboratory invents the transistor, laying groundwork for semiconductor industry. 1957: Fairchild Founded by Traitorous Eight Traitorous Eight engineers leave Shockley to found Fairchild Semiconductor. 1960s: Integrated Circuits Pioneered Fairchild pioneers integrated circuits, enabling smaller and more powerful electronics. 1979: Schlumberger Acquires Fairchild Schlumberger acquires Fairchild Semiconductor, integrating it into its operations.
In 1957, eight engineers defected from Shockley Semiconductor to found Fairchild Semiconductor in San Jose. They pioneered transistors and integrated circuits, igniting the Silicon Valley semiconductor revolution.
