Integrated circuit (IC) has transformed the field of electronics and technology. In this work, we provide a straightforward introduction to IC for non-experts, covering the beginning and growth of IC from its initial conception in the late 1950s through its ongoing evolution in the modern era. We explore the significant impact of IC on various aspects of daily life, including healthcare, transportation, entertainment, etc. We will talk about how to understand IC, types of IC, its development, and applications. Learning about IC is so important for everyone in this era because it almost has a strong connection with our daily lives, so our modern world can not go on without IC. You could not imagine how the world would work if we did not have IC technology. So, this article aims to let non-experts know about the essential role of IC in our interconnected world and illustrate how the IC has shaped our daily lives and inspired technological advancements.
