Moore’s Law
Dr. Gordon Moore
Why the Devices are scaled down? Gordon Moore, a physical chemist
•To increase the speed working in electronics, made a prediction
•To increase the number of in 1965, the number of transistors on an
components per chip integrated chip, would double every 18
•To reduce the cost months.
