In the early 1970s it became clear that integrated circuits were going to be a big deal. New electronics systems had the potential to remake modern society.
But as chips swelled to tens of thousands of transistors, designers began struggling with their increasing complexity. It threatened the advancement of the industry.
Then in 1980, two computer scientists, Carver Mead and Lynn Conway, released a textbook that sparked a semiconductor design paradigm shift. In this video, we look at how VLSI systems design revolutionized the industry.
