Microelectronics engineering deals with the design and
Microprocessor
microfabrication of very small electronic circuit compo-
nents for use in an integrated circuit or sometimes for
use on their own as a general electronic component.[35]
The most common microelectronic components are
semiconductor transistors, although all main electronic
components (resistors, capacitors etc.) can be created at
