On the Historical Evolution of Electronic Industry

Electronic technology has a history of more than 80 years, but it developed slowly before the 1940s. Since the invention of transistors and computers, the electronic industry has become a new industry, developing rapidly, becoming the fastest-growing high-tech industry in the world today, and playing an increasingly prominent role in the national economy of various countries.

2. The electronic industry is one of the pillar industries of the national economy, and it is also a new technology development industry. In the Ninth Five-Year Plan for People's Republic of China (PRC)'s National Economic and Social Development and the Outline of Long-term Objectives for 20 10, the long-term objectives of China's electronic industry-focusing on the development of integrated circuits, new components, computers and communication equipment-were defined.

3. The electronic industry developed rapidly in the 1990s, and has gradually formed an electronic information industry with economic informatization as the core and computers, integrated circuits, semiconductor chips, optical fiber communication, mobile communication, satellite communication and other products based on microelectronics as the development subjects.

4. The continuous development of high-tech products in electronic industry has further shortened the life cycle of electronic products and accelerated the upgrading of electronic products. In order to adapt to the new development ideas, some electronic product manufacturers tend to use standard components to combine products and provide more different products at lower prices.
