Fairchild Micrologic Jun 2026

Before this, if an engineer wanted a flip-flop, they had to build one out of individual resistors, capacitors, and transistors on a board. The Micrologic series (specifically the famous µL900 series) put an entire logic function onto a single chip of silicon. This was the "Unity Gain" concept: small, modular blocks that could be cascaded to build complex systems.
