History

Texas Instruments is a technology company based in Dallas, Texas, that designs and manufactures semiconductors and various integrated circuits. The company was founded in 1930 as Geophysical Service, Inc. by a group of four men who were involved in the exploration of natural gas. The company specialized in seismic exploration and became known for developing technology used in the discovery of offshore oil reserves.

In the 1940s, the company entered the electronics industry and changed its name to Texas Instruments. It began to manufacture electronic components such as transistors, diodes, and integrated circuits, which were used in a variety of applications, including radios and televisions. In the 1950s, Texas Instruments introduced the first silicon transistor, which helped revolutionize the electronics industry.

In the 1960s, Texas Instruments played a major role in the development of the semiconductor industry, with its invention of the integrated circuit. The company's integrated circuits helped reduce the size and cost of electronic devices, and led to the creation of new products, such as calculators and personal computers. Texas Instruments' TI-2500 Datamath calculator, introduced in 1972, was the first commercially successful handheld calculator.

During the 1980s, Texas Instruments expanded its business to include the production of microprocessors, which are used in computers and other electronic devices. The company's TMS9900 microprocessor, introduced in 1976, was used in the first desktop computers. In 1985, Texas Instruments sold its consumer electronics division, which included the production of televisions, radios, and home computers, to focus on its semiconductor and microprocessor businesses.

In the 1990s, Texas Instruments continued to innovate in the semiconductor industry, introducing new products such as digital signal processors and application-specific integrated circuits. The company also expanded into the telecommunications industry, developing products for use in cellular phones and other wireless devices.

In the 2000s, Texas Instruments became a major supplier of chips for the automotive industry, as well as for digital cameras and other consumer electronics. The company also introduced a number of products for the healthcare industry, including wireless sensors and monitoring devices. In 2009, Texas Instruments sold its memory chip business to Micron Technology, Inc.

In recent years, Texas Instruments has continued to focus on its core businesses of semiconductors and integrated circuits. The company has introduced new products for use in the Internet of Things (IoT) and automotive industries, as well as for artificial intelligence and machine learning applications. Texas Instruments is also known for its commitment to sustainability, with a focus on reducing its environmental impact and improving the sustainability of its products.

Today, Texas Instruments is one of the world's largest semiconductor companies, with operations in more than 30 countries and a workforce of more than 30,000 employees. The company is widely recognized for its innovation and technical expertise, and is a major supplier of chips for a wide range of industries, including automotive, industrial, healthcare, and consumer electronics.
