no, second generation. third generation computers used ICs.
Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.
Third Generation
Among many other things, third generation computers.
The primary feature of third generation computers was their use of integrated circuits.
no, second generation. third generation computers used ICs.
Differentiate between third generation of computers and fourth generation?"
Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.
Third Generation
The first minicomputers were second generation computers, but the most well known minicomputers were third generation computers.
No one person.
Intergrated circuits
Third Generation Computers were made out of Integrated Circuits and Fourth Generation Computers are made of Microprocessors.
Programming computers. That is what they were designed for.
this is generally considered to have happened in the 1970s or 1980s. however for certain special types of computers they are still third generation computers, because they contain no microprocessor(s), instead they are composed of many high density advanced random logic integrated circuits. so the third generation has still not completely ended.
VLSI chips straddle the third generation and fourth generation computers. They were used to make some third generation computers, but the development VLSI levels of integration permitted enough transistors to make a complete simple CPU in one integrated circuit chip, creating the first microprocessors (e.g. Intel 4004, Intel 8008) used to build fourth generation computers.
yes. that is their defining technology.
