Analog Vlsi
Very large-scale integration (VLSI) is the process of creating an integrated circuit (IC) by combining millions or List_of_Nvidia_graphics_processing_units#Volta_series , billions of MOS transistors onto a single chip. VLSI began in the 1970s when MOS integrated circuit (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) chips were developed and then widely adopted, enabling complex semiconductor and telecommunication technologies. The microprocessor and memory chips are VLSI devices. Before the introduction of VLSI technology, most ICs had a limited set of functions they could perform. An electronic circuit might consist of a central processing unit, CPU, Read-only memory, ROM, Random-access memory, RAM and other glue logic. VLSI enables IC designers to add all of these system on a chip, into one chip. History Background The history of the transistor dates to the 1920s when several inventors attempted devices that were intended to control current in solid-state diodes and convert them into triodes. ...

List Of Nvidia Graphics Processing Units
This list contains general information about graphics processing units (GPUs) and video cards from Nvidia, based on official specifications. In addition some Comparison of Nvidia nForce chipsets, Nvidia motherboards come with integrated onboard GPUs. Limited/Special/Collectors' Editions or AIB versions are not included. Field explanations The fields in the table listed below describe the following: * ''Model'' – The marketing name for the processor, assigned by The Nvidia. * ''Launch'' – Date of release for the processor. * ''Code name'' – The internal engineering codename for the processor (typically designated by an NVXY name and later GXY where X is the series number and Y is the schedule of the project for that generation). * ''Semiconductor device fabrication, Fab'' – Fabrication process. Average feature size of components of the processor. * ''Bus (computing), Bus interface'' – Bus by which the graphics processor is attached to the system (typically an expansion s ...
