Historically, technical innovations and advances began in a more rarified environment of academic research or military projects, then filtered down and expanded to the mass markets as their manufacturing processes advanced and costs decreased. As one example, consider the resistor-transistor logic (RTL) NOR-gate integrated circuits used for the Apollo moon-mission navigation computer, shown in Figure […]
