`Introduction
`
`The National Museum of American History's Chip Collection consists of individual
`donations of objects, images and documentation that traces the history of integrated
`circuits.
`
`The Chip Collection is a continuing collection work-in-progress concerning a small part of
`the permanent collection of the Division of Information Technology & Society's Electricity
`Collections.

`such diverse devices as disks, magnetic tapes, printers, and scanners to
`share a common interface to one or more computer systems that changed
`the face of computing, A single chip with links to original documents,
`transcriptions, images, Polaroid photographs of the "white boards" used in
`the design phase and an NCR corporate story.

`
`C. Marcus Olson , of Du Pont 1936 - 1971, has been credited as the
`
`discoverer of the process to make silicon really pure - 0.001 percent
`impurity or less - the basic raw material of which are built the transistor and
`the integrated circuit and, indirectly, the computer and everything else made
`from microelectronic elements. This collection of documents has been
`
`literally transcribed with links to the originals and Dr. Olson’s single vial of
`pure silicon.

`Solid state image sensors - matrix, linear, smaller and longer arrays have
`been designed for applications ranging from OCR, facsimile,
`spectrophotagraphy, production lines and to outer space and the ocean
`depths. (Ever scan or copy documents, images, etc. one of several
`important circuits accomplishes that trick!) Review Integrated Filters -
`Arrays ca. 1975-79, sell‘-scanned solid state image sensors — one-
`dimensional row, or linear array, and a two—dimensional matrix, or area
`array.

`
`An important though unusual aspect of the history oi‘ integrated circuit
`technology is buried deep inside many chips, we call this chip art. You will
`discover actual mask alignments, signatures and initials of the designer or
`perhaps the engineer and the chip art of those who have left their mark for
`posterity. Some are satirical quips and some are recognizable cartoon
`characters we have all become familiar with. Included is a link to our
`
`collaboration involving chip art with Dr. Michael W. Davidson of Florida
`State University.
