Jack Kilby

Jack St. Clair Kilby (November 8, 1923 – June 20, 2005) was a notable American electrical engineer who co-won the Nobel Prize in physics in 2000. He invented the integrated circuit in 1958 while working at Texas Instruments (TI) at about the same time Robert Noyce made the same invention at Fairchild Semiconductor. (However, Noyce's patent came six months later.)
