On September 27, 1960, using the ideas of Noyce and Hoerni, a group of Jay Last's at Fairchild Semiconductor created the first operational semiconductor IC. Texas Instruments, which held the patent for Kilby's invention, started a patent war, which was settled in 1966 by the agreement on cross-licensing.

A needle is used to inject the chip. The injection is comparable to a regular vaccine injection. If your pet becomes lost and is transported to an animal shelter, the shelter will be able to scan your pet for the chip and contact you. The scanner is similar to a scanner found in the grocery store. In 1985, Dr. Stoddard invented the microchip based pet recovery system and formed American Veterinary Identification Devices (AVID). Avid's pioneering work in the field of radio frequency identification has been globally recognized by the award of 37 patents.

Kilby began to write down and sketch out his ideas in July of 1958. By September, he was ready to demonstrate a working integrated circuit built on a piece of semiconductor material. Several executives, including former TI Chairman Mark Shepherd, gathered for the event on September 12, 1958.

The Chip that Jack Built. It was a relatively simple device that Jack Kilby showed to a handful of co-workers gathered in TI's semiconductor lab 50 years ago -- only a transistor and other components on a slice of germanium.

TI was working on the Micro-Module program when Kilby joined the company in 1958. Because of his work with Centralab in Milwaukee, Kilby was familiar with the tyranny of numbers problem facing the industry.

Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments patented the principle of integration, created the first prototype ICs and commercialized them. Kurt Lehovec of Sprague Electric Company invented a way to electrically isolate components on a semiconductor crystal.

There is no consensus on who invented the IC. The American press of the 1960s named four people: Kilby, Lehovec, Noyce and Hoerni; in the 1970s the list was shortened to Kilby and Noyce, and then to Kilby, who was awarded the 2000 Nobel Prize in Physics for his part in the invention of the integrated circuit.

In mid-April 1956, a young Robert Noyce sped cross-country in his car to join his new colleagues at Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory in Mountain View, Calif. He arrived just in time for a raucous party celebrating the company's launch, downed a pitcher of martinis, and promptly passed out.

While at Fairchild, Noyce developed the integrated circuit. The same concept has been invented by Jack Kilby at Texas Instruments in Dallas a few months previously. In July 1959 Noyce filed a patent for his conception of the integrated circuit.
