Part A: the number of transistors per IC in 1972 seems to be about 4,00 (a rough estimate by eye). Using this estimate and Moore's Law, what would you predict the number of transistors per IC to be 20 years later, in 1992?Part B: From the chart, estimate (roughly) the number of transistors per IC in 2018. Using your estimate and Moore's Law, what would you predict the number of transistors per IC to be in 2040?Part C: Do you think that your prediction in Part B is believable? Why or Why not?

log(y) Moore's Law - The number of transistors on integrated circuit chips (1971-2018) Our World Moore's law describes the empirical regularity that the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. in Data This advancement is important as other aspects of technological progress - such as processing speed or the price of electronic products - are linked to Moore's law. 11 50,000,000,000 72-core Xeon Phi Centriq 2400 SPARC M7 GC2 IPU $32-core AMD Epyc IBM z13 Storage Controller Apple A12X Bionic 10 10,000,000,000 18-core Xeon Haswell-E5 Tegra Xavier SoC Xbox One main SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx/SCX8180 5,000,000,000 61-core Xeon Phi HiSilicon Kirin 980 + Apple A12 Bionic 12-core POWER HiSilicon Kirin 710 8-core Xeon Nehalem-EX JU-Core Core If Broadwell Six-core Xeon 7400 Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Dual-core Itanium 20 Dual-core + GPU Inis Core 17 Broadwell-U Quad-core + GPU GT2 Core 17 Skylake K 9 1,000,000,000 Pentium D Presler POWERS `Quad-core + GPU Core 17 Haswell tanium 2 with Apple A7 (dual-core ARM64 "mobile SoC") 500,000,000 Core 17 (Quad) Itanium 2 Madison 6MQ AMD K10 quad core 2M L3 Core 2 Duo Wolfdale Pentium D Smithfield re 2.
