Transistor Computer

• The first Transistor Computer was invented in 1948 by Oskar Heil.
• The invention of the electronic hardware Transistor was important because it replaced vacuum tubes in the computer.
• There are two main types of transistors: bipolar and field-effect. Additionally, they have 3 terminals.
• A fun fact about the transistor is that a computer can't operate without an integrated circuit (chip), and a chip can't operate without a transistor.
