Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The physical size of the silicon chip has remained about 1.5cm square for quite some time. What has shrunk are the size of the elements on the silicon chip, which were about a micrometer 40 years ago and can now be under 7 nanometers.
Detailed explanation-2: -Computers of fourth generation used Very Large Scale Integrated (VLSI) circuits. VLSI circuits having about 5000 transistors and other circuit elements with their associated circuits on a single chip made it possible to have microcomputers of fourth generation.
