False-colour SEM connector wires on silic
False-colour scanning electron micrograph of a TM 2716 integrated circuit, or silicon chip, show- ing 2 connecting wires bonded to terminal pads on the edge of the device. The wires are attached by ultrasonic welding. Between the pads, 2 narrow tracks lead towards the chips circuitry at bottom right. The small squares at the right-hand end of the tracks are transistors controlling the inputs from & outputs to the connecting wires. This chip is of the EPROM (Electrically Programmable Read- Only Memory) type which is programmed by applying a voltage across selected connecting pins. Some EPROMS can later be reprogrammed. Magnification: x70 at 35mm size, x120 at 4.5x6cm size. Full false-colour. BW is T370 451

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate world of technology at a microscopic level. In this false-colour scanning electron micrograph, we are granted a glimpse into the inner workings of a TM 2716 integrated circuit, more commonly known as a silicon chip. The image reveals two connecting wires that have been meticulously bonded to terminal pads on the edge of the device using ultrasonic welding. As our eyes wander towards the bottom right, we notice two narrow tracks leading towards the chip's circuitry. These tracks serve as pathways for data transmission and control within the chip. At their endpoint, small squares come into view - transistors responsible for regulating inputs from and outputs to these connecting wires. The EPROM (Electrically Programmable Read-Only Memory) nature of this particular chip is also highlighted in this image. EPROM chips can be programmed by applying voltage across selected connecting pins, allowing for data storage and retrieval functions. Some EPROMS even possess reprogramming capabilities. With an impressive magnification ratio of x70 at 35mm size and x120 at 4.5x6cm size, every detail is brought to life in full false-colour glory through this photograph print from Science Photo Library's vast collection. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity in creating intricate electronic systems that power our modern world while reminding us of the beauty hidden within technological marvels like silicon chips.
