- [Recorded: October, 1967]
This half hour color promotional/educational film on the integrated circuit was produced and sponsored by Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation and first shown on television on October 11, 1967. In the film, Dr. Harry Sello and Dr. Jim Angell describe the integrated circuit (IC), discuss its design and development process, and offer examples of late 1960s uses of IC technology.
Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation was one of the most influential early high-tech companies. Founded in Palo Alto California in 1957 by eight scientists and engineers from Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory, Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation was funded by Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corporation of Syossett, New York. Rapidly establishing itself as a technology innovator based on its invention of the planar manufacturing process in 1959, the company developed the first monolithic integrated circuit, the first CMOS device, and numerous other technical and business innovations. French oil field services company Schlumberger Limited purchased Fairchild in 1979 and sold a much weakened business to National Semiconductor in 1987. In 1997 National divested a group, formed as the present Fairchild Semiconductor, in a leveraged buy-out. The company re-emerged as a public entity based in South Portland, Maine in 1999 under the corporate name Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc.
Fairchild Semiconductor presented its new products and technologies with an entrepreneurial style, and its early manufacturing and marketing techniques helped give Californias Santa Clara County a new name: Silicon Valley. It was one of the early forerunners of what would become a worldwide high-tech industry, as evidenced in this short promotional film.

These brilliant geniuses anticipated our modern RUclips 54 years ahead of its time!
Dr. Jim Angell died in 2006, and Dr. Harry Sello in 2017.
Thanks, Jim & Harry. A nice legacy, RIP.
Old videos like this seem to be so more understandable.
Simple language,
good analogies,
not too much high res fluff,
Good incentive to teach
It's much, much more difficult to explain the complex simply than to complexify the already complex. When you see something complex explained simply and accurately, you know that very smart people were involved - because it takes Real Smarts to de-complexify.
and no background music!!!!!!
Because there used to be a "barrier to entry" to making these, it was expensive with expensive equipment.. so only the best got through to make them.. unlike now.. "everyone's a DJ".
I wish more educational films were made in this style, they're great.
Nah make them 5 minutes long skipping all the details.
@@Cypeq why?
@@joejia1410 sarcasm
Back then men were gentlemen and drank rob roys and manhattans
I just signed up for the Fairchild TV Briefing brochures in the video. I can't wait to get them!
They never received it because you didn't use a ZIP code in the address!
This is some old stuff. I started in Fairchild's material division in 1971, then off to CMOS in 1974. Fun times, but serious work.
Amazing stuff
@@ramencurry6672 Back then, I built our own Diffusion furnaces from scratch. Those were the days!
what an experience!!!!
That's really cool. U must have witnessed the birth of so many things people of generation couldn't imagine life without.
It is worth noting, the process described here used a contact mask, producing PMOS chips. The achilles heel of this process was of course, the net yield of working chips from a given die. This is mentioned in this video Even by the mid 1970s, this yield was approximately 20 to 30 percent. Process pioneers, like John Pavinen developed an N-channel process using non-contact masks at MOS technologies during 1974, and increased the net yield of masks to over 70%. Making the $25 6502 CPU possible.
AH yes, the 6502. As used by Apple and Acorn Computers, who went on to design the very first ARM processor.
The process described here is not MOS, but bipolar. MOS was around about this time, but it had some serious problems that caused the threshold voltage to change with the applied gate voltage. Fairchild finally solved this puzzle when Bruce Deal revealed the culprit: mobile sodium atoms in the oxide beneath the gate. Once that contaminant was removed, then stable MOS devices could be made, which begat the MOS revolution. I worked in PMOS at Fairchild in 1971, and then NMOS came along another year or two after that. Here we have another example of Fairchild's pioneering leadership.
@@petermitchell6348 for the record Apple had no hand in the "design" of the ARM proc, they were just finance, and a lot later in the game. (this is not from a google search)
Do you think they would have put someone in a psych ward for making 2nm?
Old school videos are a lot clearer/more detailed than contemporary videos. Much better for educational purposes
When your company has a “commercial” for the the product it’s selling, within the film that’s demonstrating said product... Savage..
With so many ic manufacturers, I didn't know how much we owe Fairchild for what we have today. This is one video deserves a lot being here. Thanks for sharing it.
Born in 1958 and professionally working in the Consumer Electronics Repair Industry since 1977 I can tell you that we are on an extremely fast track with technology. When I started working in 1977 there were still some tubes in TV circuits. I saw the first (Fairchild) integrated circuit used in a TV. Quasar had an IC for the AFT (auto fine tune) circuit. I have installed thousands of Fairchild components. Today I solder individual resistors the size of a grain of pepper using hot air instead of a soldering iron. What will tomorrow bring?
yeah.,.. it´s amazing to see what we have today! few years ago i saw a kid with a tablet on a museum... suddenly came to my mind that image of the future portrayed in movies and tv sci fi...!
Fuck you too.
i was bornn recently and i can tell you i wouldve like to see the process of the use of integrated circuits insteaad of not seeing it and not knowing their uses
Fuk Hue Repairman will not be needed in the future
all of these systems are still in use, they are just smaller and faster. If you study these things you can make amazing tech. Start young and you'll have a bright future ahead of you.
I never thought I could sit through a half our documentary on integrated circuits and remain fascinated throughout.
And it's still so relevant !
Companies like this have all my respect. This groundbreaking work made possible the future where we actually live.
The Syosset based company did not give the engineers the respect and latitude they deserved so they left and formed intel
and now comes sky net.... yay
This is amazing what they accomplished in 1966... things like this made our modern life possible!
Skidd2 because... aliens
@@misterkota1252 If I didn't do electronics since 1970 as a kid, well, not aliens, I might have claimed as well: We could not go to the moon because of those primitive computers in Apollos! Nonsense! Modest yes, but efficient enought for the Moon ride!
If they started with 2nm we'd be further ahead now
Its impressive that even then how small the integrated circuit was. Its mind boggling how far we have come though and the level of miniaturization we have on our chips today.
Kids should watch this just to understand the monumental work that went in to what we have today. I feel like they think it was easy, or that it all just appeared out of thin air.
All I can say is wow! I wish I saw this video in college. Explains the fundamentals extremely well. Back to basics, excellent. Thanks for posting!
these old videos are the best...
Old comments are the best.
True 2019 here
Bump. 2020 is on the horizon....
@@ksln Watch out for coronavirus
What about old adult movies
This is a real classic! Great historical information, and very well presented!
Obviously it was William Schallert who narrated the commercials. His voice is very distinctive.
@ What you are seeing here are two IF strips manufactured by HH Scott during the mid to late 1960s. Scott worked with Fairchild on the development of integrated circuits for these IF (intermediate frequency) strips. The IF stage shown here is for a FM tuner, such as the late model Scott 312B, or the first generation 312C. The presenter is not entirely honest with the audience: The IF stage that he demonstrates as pre- IC has one integrated circuit, the very one that Fairchild developed for Scott. Also, the "new" IF strip that he is holding was never used in a production unit made by HH Scott, although it doubtless came from Scott. It was most likely used in a specialized device (such as a broadcast monitor) made by Scott's instruments division.
By 1967, all Scott IF stages, in FM tuners, FM receivers, and AM-FM receivers used IC's exclusively.
Great documentary. I don't think it is possible to find an older documentary about that technolgy, 1967. It was new. Created by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce, founder of Intel. The original of 1958 only had one transistor. The integrated circuits were used in Apollo Guidance Computer, 1966.
Noyce came from Fairchild. Apollo used RTL
First heard of Fairchild when our "Channel F" video game system arrived by mail order one snowy day in 1981. :)
I have watched many videos about how to create an IC chip, and this is the easiest one to understand. Thank you.
Wow how things have change, wonderful to have these videos showing the progress we have made
The intro is way cool with eerie sounds. Love the 'commercials'! I had to watch the whole thing it's very informative. Great old school video nice upload!
Really good video, thanks you for putting this on youtube
Thank you so much for this! We'll be watching it on October 11, just like folks around the country 55 years ago...
yeah back then you could still understand and follow each circuit wire with the finger...
Just four years after this video came out, Intel introduced the world's first microprocessor. Crazy.
This changed our lives...
That was awesome! Thanks for sharing this video
Lollll
Made my own circuit boards and soldered all my own parts on to it when l was 15 years old.
Also did some study on micro computer architecture later in life.
Technology and Engineering has always held a fascination.
Loved my old texas instruments calculator 😉
😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
I love my TI84 Silver Plus! I can do integration and derivatives with ease! I can write my own programs on it, and so much more! I can even play Tetris without sound on it!
Same here. I was a Ham Radio Operator.
52y after, DIP are still shipped in the same tubes.
Why do our British friends call these 'DIL' ? I know what it stands for, but the US, where this package was invented, called them DIPs. How did EU start calling them "DILs" ?
@@cheponis We call them DIP in Germany
@@dreamyrhodes Proving once again the Superior Technical Choices of our German Friends! Thanks for fixing my overgeneralization.
@@cheponis : DIL is the name of the format...DIP means DIL using (cheaper) Plastic material.
@@peplegal8253 So, DIL,P ? ;-) As compared with DIL,Ceramic...
I've written in to Fairchild for my catalog and applications notes 19:15.
Great video ,and today smartphones have over 4 billion transistors! Amazing ,we have come a long way since 1967.
Bob Noyce, who was one of the original traiterous 8, who left Shockley's company and started Fairchild Semiconductor, paved the way with his patents for manufacturing silicon transistors. At around the same time the first silicon transistors were being produced he realised that whole integrated circuits could be done similarly. probably not long after this video was produced he left Fairchild, and started Intel with Gordon Moore (of Moore's law fame) where they went onto to pioneer the first microprocessor. He also mentored Steve Jobs in late 70s.. Not much talk about Noyce these days. Incidentally he was known as the Mayor of Silicone valley. what a man...
Don't forget the other key founder of Intel: Andy Grove. Grove wrote the book on transistor fabrication. Noyce was an absolutely brilliant guy. Without question he is the founder of Silicon Valley. There will never be another like him, a true leader of men. (Sorry ladies, but that's the truth....)
I’m sure Edward F Harris is thrilled that his social security number, birthdate and salary are shown at 23:15. 1967 was certainly a different time.
Might've been a fictional record for the film maker
thanks! i've seen a bunch of these vids on this subject, and this one is the only one that i really been able to understand. Plus its datedness is entertaining. Great vid!
This is how I spend my Saturday nights babbyy :P !
This is literally the best thing you could give someone who wants to go into computers/computer science.
This is so retro, I love it.
This is an awesome awesome video. Thanks for the Upload
Absolutely beautiful, also now 8 dec. 2020.
I was reading about the dawn of IC Technology in Popular Electronics as it was unfolding! I remember a technically minded friend of mine talking with me saying "There's one.. that's an IC"! Seems like a lifetime ago!
\
Amazing. Simply amazing.
I love it! Thanks for the upload.
Good to know. I just ate several transistors and this makes me feel good about it.
Wow I love this and I'm satisfied.. Thanks
Fairchild: "Metal over oxide... you can't make an integrated circuit without it!"
Polysilicon: "Hold my beer."
The silicon gate technology was actually developed by Federico while working at Fairchild. He followed Noyce and Moore to their company, intel, but eventually left to found Zilog... I love reading anything written by Federico Faggin - quite an interesting fellow
Is Metal-over-oxide same as metal oxide? As in MOSFET
@@foxtrot312 : Yes.
i really like the graphic design on that advertisement IC info packet / spec sheet booklet.
Outstanding and historic film.
STUNNING DOCUMENT
Techniques used until now
Music is always cool in these old clips. :)
50 years pass away and we can't still do this process in home damn ;)
jajajajajajaj
Give it some time; and we might soon be able to 3D print our own programmable ICs! 3D printing is still in its infancy!
a few folk have gotten rather close.
You can try. :)
See the work of Sam Zeloof.

@@NerdyNEET PCBs yes, but integrated circuits involve far more miniaturization and a separate clean room for each step in IC fabrication.
Nobody ever mentioned who started everything the granddaddy AT&T Bell Labs invented the transistor I believe it was 1947? I work for AT&T for 36 years and proud of it great company
This is cool thanks for upload
Great history lesson.
WOW! CNC wire wrapping... That's like "yesterday's tomorrow today"!!!
Bet that pack of technical/advertising literature would fetch a pretty penny on E. Bay now. *** VINTAGE ****
My dad worked on the probe machines for Fairchild, those machines that tested the circuits before they cut the wafers up. When the guys that started Fairchild left to start Intel, my dad left Fairchild and started a company manufacturing probe cards and probe machines. Intel was their biggest customer, I'm guessing because my dad and his partners knew the Intel founders personally.
The mandatory white shirt. IBM would be proud.
What an interesting vidio.
Thanks for posting..
Looking at this video it appears ICs haven't actually done anything but become smaller and more refined and are essentially still pretty much the same.
thx for oploading
that is what i looked for.....thx very much for that
Thanks CHM!
blast from the past
Thank you so much for posting this video i found it very interesting and really informative.. regards Richard
amazing to think of how far we have advanced since then
It really took me by surprise when he compared the price of silicon ingot to diamond. Yikes, we've gotten better at that, too.
Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Steve Wozniak were given so many props and attention. However, these guys would've ended up your average person just like you and me if it weren't for Jack Kilby. Now this man I've never heard of in my 44 years on this earth. Until recently. Look him up.
Nice knowledge video
It would be awesome, if they make a movie out this invention.
The base for every other technologies we are enjoying in 2023.
I'm wondering if these books are still available for reading.
hand made .........amazing!!
Yes, this is a GReAT video ! I notice that how they speak hasn't changed much in newer IC company technical-ish videos... I mean, their speech is somewhat robotic and they are obviously not public speakers in real life. So must be real engineers I guess !
During this video from 7:20 to 12:45 this guy describes my modern day job in the simplest form. But today’s process in the fab is obviously much more advanced.
another thing that is impressive is the tooling to make these ic's, the same goes for auto manufacturers their tooling is impressive
I envision Woz having watched this in his early years.
great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in explained in depth
I'd love one of those 1967 circuit boards filled with flat packs.
Harry Sello looks so much like Tony Goldwyn (played Carl Bruner in Ghost (1990)) !!
somewhere I have an old Fairchild catalog from when I was @ State Tech.
I forget what did Fairchild merge into/ become?
Fairchild Camera and Instrument was bought by Schlumberger and eventually spun back off and still exists today..
13:52 "...the idea that you're going to build a tasty but inedible sandwich." HAHA fucking helarious
15:01 actually. Would you mind editing your comment?
i would wish i had some of those old books to look at, it would be soo cool xD
cant believe these kind of programmes were broadcasted on public tv!
I think the narrarator of the commercials was actor william schallert
I want those books! I wonder If I still send a return envelope to Fairchild if I'll get a reply! :p
BESTEE TANKS!!
Holy shit,they were really really ahead of it's time in 1967,i can't believe that many do say's that the 1st miccroprocessor was invented in 1971.
There are several technologies that have been used to build fast mainframes of that era (see emitter-coupled logic (ECL)). Better for a personal computer? Historically, none were suitable to be reduced into a single-chip microprocessor. Power consumption and cooling are HUGE factors. The NSA has no problem using enough power for a small town to power its systems; most of us can't afford that, much less the supporting infrastructure to support it.
As to IBM's 4.77 MHz speed, even that was below the 8088's 5 MHz spec. Why? It had to do with deriving all clock sources from a single 14.31818 MHz clock, allowing it to be divided by 3 for the CPU, and by 4 for the 3.58 MHz colorburst signal for the composite color video monitor. They got cheap. The clone wars didn't make that mistake. Not for the trivial cost of a 2nd (or 3rd) clock source.
Now, to be fair, in typical IBM fashion, they really had no idea what revolution they were about to unleash, so they kept the design conservative. This is also the same company that lost its market share for a product it invented. Twice.
therealnightwriter I've been trying to track down any citation I can find for these claims of early computers in the high hundred of mhz range that were not made public. Do you know what book that was?
MPU != IC
IBM also made the big mistake (with hindsight) of using commercial, off-the-shelf components to build the PC. This made copying it quite easy. IBM then spent a lot of years trying to hold off the clone makers, but ultimately the flood gates opened, and they had to leave the PC business that they started.
son's mother and mother's son are educated enough to follow this video
*_Can the US still design the circuits and manufacture design, processes, personal/robotic processes?_*
nostalgie
we had a stromberg carson TV made here in Argentina!
The late 50s early 60s were spirited enthusiastic scientific adventure and study.
they had cool commercials back then
It's a good thing their reliability claims turned out to be very true, even on circuits containing millions of individual transistors. Can you imagine how disreputable this video could have become if integrated circuits turned out to be monumental lemons?
If they had, you 'd probably not even be aware of its existence - it would be sat in a dusty cupboard, unseen for decades. Ironic that its predictions of their potential has enabled it to be shown to a new generation. And jolly interesting too!
I wish they would have showed the commercials.
They did. They were Fairchild ads. 1 per ad break
Shit! I just realized this was 10 years before I was born.
this is so interesting, really cool. Is this the Hall of Justice of the superfriends at 22:22 ? hahaha
