Semiconductors and chips are electronic components.
chip (chip) is a general term for semiconductor component products, in electronics is a way to miniaturize circuits (mainly including semiconductor devices, but also including passive components, etc.), and is often manufactured on the surface of semiconductor wafers. Also known as integrated circuit, microcircuit, microchip. A semiconductor is a material whose electrical conductivity at room temperature is between that of a conductor and an insulator. Semiconductors are used in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting, high-power power conversion and other fields, such as diodes are made of semiconductors. Common semiconductor materials are silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, etc. Silicon is the most influential one in the application of various semiconductor materials.
Semiconductors are important raw materials for electronic components, and chips belong to electronic components.
