Voltage Doubler - Switched Capacitor Circuits
... It is possible to use the simple diode-capacitor circuits described above to double the voltage of a DC source by preceding the voltage doubler with a chopper circuit ... More efficient circuits can be built by driving the switching devices from an external clock so that both functions, the chopping and multiplying, are achieved ... Such circuits are known as switched capacitor circuits ...

IBM Solid Logic Technology - Later Developments
... that replaced SLT as IBM gradually transitioned from hybrid integrated circuits to monolithic integrated circuits Solid Logic Dense (SLD) increased packaging density and circuit ... Advanced Solid Logic Technology (ASLT) increased packaging density and circuit performance by stacking two substrates in the same package ... (MST) increased packaging density and circuit performance by replacing discrete transistors and diodes with one to four monolithic integrated circuits (resistors now external from the package on the module) ...

Transistor–transistor Logic
... Transistor–transistor logic (TTL) is a class of digital circuits built from bipolar junction transistors (BJT) and resistors ... TTL is notable for being a widespread integrated circuit (IC) family used in many applications such as computers, industrial controls, test equipment and instrumentation, consumer electronics, synthesizers ... even when not associated directly with TTL integrated circuits, for example as a label on the inputs and outputs of electronic instruments ...

LGM-30 Minuteman - History - Minuteman-II (LGM-30F)
... An improved guidance system, incorporating semiconductor integrated circuits and miniaturized discrete electronic parts ... The Minuteman-II program was economically important to the development of integrated circuits ... the first mass-produced system to use a computer constructed from integrated circuits (the Autonetics D-37C), and used most of the production of such circuits from 1962 through 1967 ...
