Moore’s Law : Transistors life

Moore’s Law

               Moore's law refers to the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. Moore's law is an observation or projection and not a physical or natural law. The observation is named after Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel, whose 1965 paper described a doubling every year in the number of components per integrated circuit, and projected this rate of growth would continue for at least another decade. In 1975 looking forward to the next decade, he revised the forecast to doubling every two years.The period is often quoted as 18 months because of Intel executive David House, who predicted that chip performance would double every 18 months.

Note:  Number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years
