What is Electronic IC? What are the characteristics of IC electronic components?

Electronic components are ubiquitous in our lives. With the development of science and technology, there are more and more types of electronic components, gradually moving towards high-frequency and miniaturization. What is an electronic IC? What are the characteristics of IC electronic components? In order to help you comprehensively understand the following points, the electronic component network platform will provide you with reference.

What is IC?

IC is a small electronic device; IC chips are integrated circuits formed by a large number of microelectronic components (transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc.) placed on a plastic foundation to make chips.

The concept of IC is a general term for semiconductor component products. Including: 1. Integrated circuit board (IC); 2. Two and three transistors; 3. Unique electronic components. In theory, it also involves many related products, such as resistors, capacitors, circuit versions/PCB versions, etc.

In particular, all electronic component integrated circuits, also known as ICs, require the collection of various electronic components on silicon boards to complete specific functional circuit modules. This is an important component of electronic products, with computational and storage effects. The use of integrated circuits covers the vast majority of military and civilian electronic products.

What are the characteristics of IC electronic components? Here are five characteristics to share with you:

Firstly, there are a wide variety of products available

According to the classification and numbering statistics of electronic equipment compiled by the original electronics department, except for integrated circuits, there are 206 categories and 2519 categories of electronic components, including 13 categories and 260 categories of electric vacuum devices; Semiconductor separation devices (including lasers, optoelectronic devices, etc.) 18 categories 379 categories; 17 electronic component majors, 161 categories and 1284 categories. There are 14 types and 596 types of electronic materials.

Secondly, this is a combination of highly specialized and multidisciplinary approaches

Processing technology and production equipment. There are certain differences between inspection techniques and equipment. This is not just an electric vacuum device. The difference between semiconductor equipment and electronic components is also the difference between key types or even Subtyping in various industries. For example, different display devices. Different components, i.e. different capacitors. Resistors and sensitive components are also different. Of course, similar products require different production processes and methods at different stages. Therefore, there is a production line for electronic components, and the first generation of components is the first generation production line; Some companies that specialize in producing double-layer printed circuit boards upgrade new machines every year.

Thirdly, complete sets and series

It is determined by electronic circuits, frequency bands and frequency characteristics, accuracy, function, power, storage and usage conditions, environment, and service life.

Fourthly, the business scale is large

The investment intensity changes at different stages, especially in terms of business scale. Production. Production conditions and production environment conditions. Among them, new technologies. The total investment in products that must be mass-produced has increased by an order of magnitude compared to August 5th, typically reaching $100 million or at least $50 million; Although the technical level of similar products is high, their output is limited, the degree of equipment automation is low, and the investment intensity is much smaller.

Fifth, the development laws of electronic components

Each electronic component and field has different development patterns, but they are closely related to the development of electronic machinery and systems, including the development of electronic technology. The development of overall structure and electrical assembly technology. However, at the level of industrial development, there are complementarities and limitations between electronic products and the entire equipment system or various electronic components.
