The beautiful teacher in our Computer 7: Pria Villalobos
The period of third generation was from 1965-
1971. The computers of third generation used
Integrated Circuits (ICs) in place of transistors. A
single IC has many transistors, resistors, and
capacitors along with the associated circuitry. The
IC was invented by Jack Kilby.
This development made computers
smaller in size, reliable, and
efficient. In this generation remote
processing, time-sharing,
multiprogramming operating
system were used. High-level
languages (FORTRAN-II TO IV,
COBOL, PASCAL PL/1, BASIC,
The main features of third generation are:
 IC used
 More reliable in comparison to previous two generations
 Smaller size
 Generated less heat
 Faster
 Lesser maintenance
 Costly
 AC required
 Consumed lesser electricity
 Supported high-level language

Some computers of this generation were:


 IBM-360 series
 Honeywell-6000 series
 PDP (Personal Data Processor)
 IBM-370/168
 TDC-316
Let’s go back and let’s
find out who is the
inventor of the 3 rd

generation of computer,
so that you can learn more
about it!!!
Who invented the
3 generation of
rd

the computer?
Jack St. Clair Kilby was an American electrical
engineer who took part(along with Robert Noyce of
Fairchild) in the realization of the first integrated
circuit while working at Texas Instruments (TI) in
1958.He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics on
December 10, 2000.Kilby was also the co-inventor
of the hand-held calculator and the thermal
printer, for which he had a patents. He also had
patents for seven other inventions.
