Microchip circuitry, SEM
Circuitry of microchip. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the tracks (narrow strips) that make up the circuitry of a microchip. The tracks are made by various deposition and etching techniques to form what is termed an integrated circuit. Microchips allow compact and reliable electronic devices to be made. This is part of the integrated circuit of an Intel 486 central processing unit (CPU). CPUs are data-processing devices that are the central component of a computer. Magnification: x905 at 6x7cm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate and vibrant world of microchip circuitry. In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a close-up view of the tracks that form the complex network within a microchip. These tracks, which resemble narrow strips, are meticulously crafted using deposition and etching techniques to create what is known as an integrated circuit. Microchips play a pivotal role in enabling the creation of compact and reliable electronic devices. They serve as the backbone for various technological marvels we rely on daily. The specific integrated circuit featured here belongs to none other than Intel's 486 central processing unit (CPU). CPUs act as data-processing powerhouses at the heart of computers, making them indispensable components in modern computing systems. With a magnification level reaching an astounding x905 at 6x7cm size, this SEM image allows us to appreciate the remarkable precision involved in manufacturing these tiny wonders. From connecting wafer boards to soldering intricate circuits onto printed circuit boards (PCBs), every detail counts when it comes to producing high-performance microprocessors. Science Photo Library has once again captured both artistry and scientific excellence with this photograph, offering us a glimpse into the mesmerizing realm where technology meets innovation.
