It is characterized by the use of vacuum tubes, which were key components in early computer systems. These computers were huge, expensive, and consumed large amounts of energy.

Second generation 1956-1963: Transistors.

Transistors, invented in 1947, began to be used in computers during this era. These devices controlled the flow of electricity, similar to vacuum tubes, but with greater energy efficiency and without generating as much heat.

The third Generation 1964-1971: Integrated circuits.

These devices, also known as chips, combine multiple transistors, resistors and capacitors on a single piece of silicon. This allowed the performance of computers to be increased while reducing the size and manufacturing cost. Integrated circuits ushered in a new era of miniaturization.

Fourth Generation (1971-1988)

The Intel 4004, released in 1971, was the world's first microprocessor. This small chip integrated thousands of transistors and had the ability to perform complex calculations, which allowed the size of computers to be drastically reduced. This advancement gave rise to personal computers (PCs).

Fifth Generation 1991-Present IA
