Here are some of its applications: Product Applications Semiconductors, or chips, are produced from silicon. Millions of transistors etched into wafers are hundreds of times smaller than a human hair.
Semiconductors manage data by controlling electrical currents to form words, numbers, sounds, images, and colors. They are widely used in integrated circuits and are indirectly used by everyone on the planet.
Some of these applications are everyday, such as computers, telecommunications and television, but others are used in advanced microwave transmissions, laser conversion systems, medical diagnostic and treatment equipment, defense systems and NASA space shuttles.
