rapid advances in microelectronics led to better computing capabilities at lower costs around the year____
A
the 1980s
B
the 1981s
C
the 1982s
D
the 1983s
E
the 1984s
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The integrated circuit enabled the development of much smaller computers. The minicomputer was a significant innovation in the 1960s and 1970s. It brought computing power to more people, not only through more convenient physical size but also through broadening the computer vendor field.

Detailed explanation-2: -The silicon computer chip became the gateway to unlocking the potential for exponential processing power. The size of transistors was becoming smaller and smaller, and with each iteration, more computing power could be packed into the same amount of space; the transistors used today are just 7 nanometers in length!

Detailed explanation-3: -Microelectronics Circuits One of the key benefits of microelectronic circuits is their ability to pack a large number of components and functions into a small space, which allows for the creation of highly compact and efficient devices.
