Medium Scale Integration (MSI):
Using this Technology, 100-1000 number of Transistors could be integrated on a single chip. eg 4 bit
Microprocessors.
Large Scale Integration
In this Technology, 1000-10000 Transistors could be integrated on a single chip. eg 8 bit
Microprocessors, RAM, ROM
Very Large Scale Integration(VLSI):
In this Technology, 10000-1 Million Transistors could be accommodated. Eg 16-32 bit
Microprocessors.
Ultra Large Scale Integration(ULSI):
In this Technology, 1 Million-10 Million Transistors could be accommodated. Eg Special Purpose
Registers.
Giant Scale Integration (GSI):
