'''''Integrated circuit'''''. To put it very briefly an integrated circuit (IC) is just a packaged electronic circuit or an IC is a complete electronic circuit in which both the active and passive component are fabricated on an extremely tiny single chips of silicon. Active component are those which have the ability to produce gain. Examples are transistor and FETs. Passive component are those which do not have this ability.examples are resistor and capacitors and inductors. Tyoe of integrated circuits: Thee are several ways of categorizing ICs as to their use and method of fabrication. The most common categories are linear or digital according to application ,and monolithic or hybrid according to fabrication. A linear IC is one that performs an amplification or other essentially linear operation on signals. Example of linear circuits are simple amplifier , operationalamplifiers , and analog communications circuits. Digital circuits involve logic and memory, for application in computers calculators microprocessor and the like.By far the greatest volume of ICs has been in the digital field , since large number of such circuit are required . since digital circuits generally require only "on-off" operation of transistors ,the design requirement for integrated digital circuit are often less stringent then for linear circuits. Althought transistors can be fabricated as easily in integrated from as in discrete from passive element are usually more difficult to produce to close tolerance in ICs.
