The emphasis of the expression is different:
chip is a chip, generally refers to the square thing that you can see with the naked eye that is full of small feet or feet that cannot be seen, but is obviously square. However, chips also include a variety of chips, such as baseband, voltage conversion, and so on.
The processor emphasizes the function more, referring to the unit that performs processing, which can be said to be the MCU, CPU, etc.
The range of integrated circuits is much wider, and the integration of some resistors, capacitors and diodes together is an integrated circuit, which may be an analog signal conversion chip or a logic-controlled chip, but in general, this concept is more inclined to the underlying things. Integrated circuit refers to the active devices, passive components and their interconnections that make up the circuit together on a semiconductor substrate or an insulating substrate to form a structurally closely related and internally related electronic circuit. It can be divided into three main branches: semiconductor integrated circuit, membrane integrated circuit and hybrid integrated circuit.
chip is a general term for semiconductor component products, which is the carrier of integrated circuits (IC, integrated circuit), which is divided by wafers.
What is the relationship and difference between semiconductor integrated circuits and semiconductor chips?
Chip is an abbreviation of integrated circuit, in fact, the real meaning of the word chip refers to a little large semiconductor chip inside the integrated circuit package, that is, the die. Strictly speaking, chips and integrated circuits are not interchangeable. Integrated circuits are manufactured through semiconductor technology, thin film technology and thick film technology, and any circuit miniaturization of a certain function can be called an integrated circuit after being made in a certain packaged circuit form. A semiconductor is a substance that lies between a good conductor and a non-good conductor (or insulator). Semiconductor integrated circuits include semiconductor chips and peripheral related circuits.
Semiconductor Integrated Circuitry
Semiconductor integrated circuits are active components such as transistors, diodes, and passive components such as resistors and capacitors that are interconnected according to a certain circuit and "integrated" on a single semiconductor chip to complete specific circuit or system functions.
Etching and wiring on semiconductor sheets to make semiconductor devices that can realize certain functions. Not only silicon chips, common ones include gallium arsenide (gallium arsenide is toxic, so some inferior circuit boards should not be curious to decompose it), germanium and other semiconductor materials.
