Question
What is the name of a device that combines several semiconductors and other components into one package?
Answer Options
- A) Transducer
- B) Multi-pole relay
- C) Integrated circuit
- D) Transformer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
The device described is an Integrated Circuit (IC), often called a microchip. An IC is a miniature electronic circuit where a large number of components—including transistors (T6B04), resistors, and diodes—are fabricated and interconnected onto a tiny, single piece of semiconductor material (T6B03), and then sealed into a small plastic or ceramic package.
IC technology is the foundation of all modern complex electronic devices, including microprocessors and the intricate circuit boards found inside modern transceivers.
