9. Third generation 1964-1971
The development of the integrated circuit was the
hallmark of the third generation of computers.
Transistors were miniaturized and placed on silicon chips,
called semiconductors
Drastically increased the speed and efficiency of
computers.

10. What’s new ?
Computer chips, both for CPU and
memory, are composed of
semiconductor materials.
Semiconductors make it possible to
miniaturize electronic components,
such as transistors.
Not only does miniaturization
mean that the components take up
less space,
it also means that they are faster
and require less energy

11. Instead of punched cards and printouts, users
interacted with computers through keyboards
and monitors and interfaced with an operating
system
which allowed the device to run many different
applications at one time with a central program
that monitored the memory.
First time became accessible to a mass audience
because they were smaller and cheaper than
their predecessors.

14. Mr.S Kirubakaran from TATA Motors
In SPC we focus on removing all Assignable causes first and then make the process stable where
only common causes will be present. Then we focus on reducing variations so that we run the
process at mean/near to mean level and also with a Lean spread.
I’m interested to know the relationship between the Sigma factor and the Cpk.
My doubt is that, it shows that if we operate in +/-1sigma level we get better Cpk. But actual table
shows different.
Pl. explain based on the table below :

15. Answer to the Query on SPC by Mr. S Kirubakaran of TATA Motors
An excellent question and my sincere appreciations !
• Less the Sigma value is an indication of less variation – is a Good sign.
• As per the table, when the Sigma is considered to be ‘1’, the Spread will be 2 ( + or – 1 sigma ).
• Percentage yield is nothing but the coverage of the area of Spread, in the Gaussian distribution.
• The table to be understood well. 2 sigma level will cover only 68. 27 % of the total population.
• As we know a stable process ( which has NO assignable causes in it ) will be having a spread of 6
sigma,. Ie., +/- 3 sigma.
• That 6 sigma itself will not cover the total population ( ie. 100 % of the population). It covers 97.97 % of
the total population. That is the significance of the Yield mentioned in the table.
• When the 2 sigma spread itself is falling in the SPECIFICATION limits, the estimated Cpk would be 0.33.
• It is an indication of large variations and wide spread process.
• Obviously, it cant not be a good process at all !

16. Answer to the Query on SPC by Mr. S Kirubakaran of TATA Motors
• I have noticed in some places, the Customer will demand the Supplier to Operate in the +/- 1 Sigma
level itself.
• It is impossible to operate and if the Producer attempts to do so, it is called as Over-adjustment ! ( TPM
calls this as ‘Tinkering of the Process’ ). This has to be Strictly avoided and the process to be allowed to
have its own Bell shaped curve.
• That way, the Table to be understood and process to be allowed to run.
• Your views on Chance causes & Assignable causes are perfect.
• Disappointing to note, that some of the Engineers & Managers are just satisfying by feeding in the data
in the Mini tab – even without knowing the basics.
• That way, your question carries lot of value in it.
• Appreciations for the excellent question, once again !
