This document discusses microchips and DNA microchips. Section 1 defines microchips as tiny silicon wafers used to make integrated circuits. It discusses the history of microchips and how they work by connecting transistors, resistors, capacitors and diodes. Section 2 explains that DNA microchips use DNA molecules as scaffolding to precisely assemble integrated circuits, as was demonstrated by scientists in 2009 using a "DNA origami" technique. DNA microchips could offer benefits over traditional silicon chips like lower cost, no toxic byproducts, smaller size, massive data storage, energy efficiency and self-assembly without silicon limitations. The document suggests DNA microchips could enable supercomputing capabilities.

5. What is Microchip?
Definition
Microchip > Tiny wafer of silicon used
to make an integrated circuit, ICs.
Microchips are made for:
Program Logics.
Computer Memory.
Logic and Memory both.

6. History of Microchip
1958, Electrical

10. Storm Your Brain & Think !
After all Remarkable
Technologies, there is an idea
next to achieve potentially
revolutionary advancement in
Computing.

11. Amazing but YES !
Usage of DNA
to make
Computer ICs
instead of
Silicon.
It is “DNA
MIRCOCHIP”

13. What is DNA ?

14. What is DNA Microchip?
August 2009, Scientists at
IBM & California Institute of
Technology uses DNA molecules
as scaffolding for the precise
assembly of integrated circuit.
The method is so-called
"DNA Origami"

16. Background of DNA Microchip
Leonard Adleman
In 1994, Leonard
Adleman introduced the
idea of using DNA to
make ICs.
DNA is very similar to a
computer hard drive in
how it stores permanent
information about your
genes.
