Integrated circuits (ICs) are compact electronic devices containing numerous interconnected transistors, resistors, diodes, and other components on a single semiconductor substrate, usually made of silicon. These miniaturized circuits revolutionized the electronics industry by enabling the development of smaller, faster, and more energy-efficient devices. ICs come in various types, including microprocessors, microcontrollers, memory chips, and analog circuits, each serving specific functions and purposes. The ICs we carry are focused on those most commonly used with microcontrollers and single board computers – browse our selection of ICs and IC accessories!
