About Texas Instruments Inc

Texas Instruments’ history began in 1930, when J. Clarence Karcher and Eugene McDermott founded Geographical Service Incorporated (GSI), as an early provider of seismic exploration services for the petroleum industry. In 1939, the company reorganized as Coronado Corp, with GSI as a subsidiary. During World War 2, GSI expanded its portfolio to include electronics for the US Navy, Army, and Signal Corps. In 1951, the company changed its name to Texas Instruments, and entered the semiconductor industry by inventing the silicon transistor in 1954.

In 1958, Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit, which both revolutionized the semiconductor industry and enabled the development of the modern electronics. In the 1960s, TI developed the first electronic handheld calculator, the Cal Tech, while also focusing on creating smaller, faster, and more powerful semiconductor chips. TI components were included on the Apollo 11 lunar module for the historic landing on the moon, and in 1971, the company invented the first single-chip microcomputer, which combined all elements of computing onto a single piece of silicon. In the 1980s, TI introduced its first commercial single-chip digital signal processors (DSP) and produced a microprocessor optimized for the task. TI would later that decade invent the digital micromirror device, which would among other purposes, be used in digital filmmaking and special effects.

In the 1990s, Texas Instruments became one of the leading developers of education technology with the TI-81 graphical calculator, the successors of which continue to be used in schools around the world. Throughout the 2000s and 2010s, TI continued to expand its efforts in the analog processing fields, such as launching a family of single-chip digital cell phone solutions in 2007 and opening the Kilby Labs in Dallas to continue research and development and acquiring National Semiconductor in 2011. Today, Texas Instruments is a Fortune 500 company with more than 30,000 employees, nearly 100,000 products, and over 40,000 patents to its name.

Products, Services, and Platforms

Products

Semiconductors: Texas Instruments’ primary product is semiconductors, electrically conductive materials whose conductivity changes with rises and falls in temperature. Semiconductors are critical components in modern electronics, and TI-produced semiconductors are found in four primary uses;

Analog Products: This division includes products that turn signals like sound, pressure, and light into digital information for electronic devices, and includes equipment like power management, signal-chain technology like data converters and sensors, clocks, and amplifiers.

Embedded Processors: Embedded processors gather inputs from analog chips and perform computational processing to operate a system. Products in this category fall under three sub-divisions: wireless connectivity products, microcontrollers, and multicore processors.

Digital Light Processing: Digital light processing is a set of optical micro-electro-mechanical technologies that use digital micromirror devices, and is used in digital cinema, rear projection TV sets, digital signs, medical, security, and industrial uses.

Educational Technology: Texas Instruments produces a range of calculators, including basic, graphing, and financial types, with the TI-83 and TI-84 being the two commonly used by students
