Google has revealed a new chip-themed homepage doodle that celebrates the 84th birthday of Robert Noyce:
Robert Norton Noyce (December 12, 1927 – June 3, 1990), nicknamed "the Mayor of Silicon Valley", co-founded Fairchild Semiconductor in 1957 and Intel in 1968. He is also credited (along with
Jack Kilby) with the invention of the integrated circuit or microchip which fueled the personal computer revolution and gave
Silicon Valley its name.
Noyce was also a mentor and father-figure to an entire generation of entrepreneurs.
