据英《新科学家））1998年7月25日报道：美国贝尔半导体股份有限公司最近研制出一种新式计算机信息处理系统。其中的集成电路不是分布在传统的硅片上，而是在1毫米直径的硅球上。过去之所以有微型芯片这个名称，是因为是在切成平面的硅晶片上蚀刻出电路的；但在硅晶片上蚀刻电 According to the British “new scientists”) July 25, 1998 reported: the United States Bell Semiconductor Co., Ltd. recently developed a new computer information processing system. The integrated circuits are not distributed on conventional silicon wafers but on 1-mm-diameter silicon balls. The reason that microchip chips were used in the past was because of the circuit etched on the sliced ​​silicon wafer; however, etching of the silicon on the silicon wafer
