definitioninventordate of invention
semiconductordefinition: a substance, as silicon or germanium, with electrical conductivity intermediate between that of an insulator and a conductor: a basic component of various kinds of electronic circuit element (semiconductor device) used in communications, control, and detection technology and in computers. (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/semiconductor)inventor: Robert Noycedate: 1970 (http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventors/hoff.htmhttp://www.answers.com/microprocessor)
microprocessordefinition: integrated circuit semiconductor chip that performs the bulk of the processing and controls the parts of a system; "a microprocessor functions as the central processing unit of a microcomputer"; "a disk drive contains a microprocessor to handle the internal functions of the drive" (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/microprocessor)inventor: Ted Hoff (http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventions/microprocessor.htm)date: 1968 (http://www.ideafinder.com/history/inventions/microprocessor.htm)
circuitboarddefinition: a sheet of insulating material used for the mounting and interconnection (often by a printed circuit) of components in electronic equipment (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/circuit%20board)inventor: Austrian engineer Paul Eisler(http://www.answers.com/circuitboard)date: 1936 (http://www.answers.com/circuitboard)
radio definition: The wireless transmission through space of electromagnetic waves in the approximate frequency range from 10 kilohertz to 300,000 megahertz (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/radio)inventor:Nicola Tesla, Guglielmo Marconi, Reginald Fessenden, Nathan Stubblefield (http://www.answers.com/who%20invented%20radio%3F)*date: 1892 (http://www.answers.com/Who%20invented%20radio%20and%20when%3F)
bluetoothdefinition: an industrial specification for wireless personal area networks (PANs). Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between devices such as mobile phones, laptops, PCs, printers, digital cameras and video game consoles via a secure, globally unlicensed short-range radio frequency. The Bluetooth specifications are developed and licensed by the Bluetooth Special Interest Group.(http://www.answers.com/bluetooth)inventor: Ericsson (http://www.answers.com/Who%20invented%20bluetooth%3F)date: 1998 (http://www.answers.com/Who%20invented%20bluetooth%3F)
televisiondefinition: The transmission of dynamic or sometimes static images, generally with accompanying sound, via electric or electromagnetic signals.(http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/television)inventor: The Americans will tell you it was Philo Taylor Farnsworth. The Russians and RCA will tell you it was Vladimir Zworykin. Like all complex devices, the television has many contributing inventors./ Scottish inventor, John Logie Baird, the father of this pervasive technology, first publicly demonstrated television date: 26 January 1926
mechanicalcomputerdefinition: The transmission of dynamic or sometimes static images, generally with accompanying sound, via electric or electromagnetic signals.inventor: Willoughby Smith, Paul Nipkow,John Logie Baird , Charles Francis Jenkinsdate: 1873-1926(http://www.answers.com/television)
electricalcomputerdefinition: Related to or associated with electricity, but not containing it or having its properties or characteristics; often used interchangeably with electric.inventor: John Vincent Atanasoffdate: 1974(http://www.hpcwire.com/hpcwire/hpcwireWWW/03/1031/106295.html)
digitalcomputerdefinition: A computer that performs calculations and logical operations with quantities represented as digits, usually in the binary number system.inventor: John Vincent Atanasoffdate: 1974
