Did the microchip nickname for ICs come from this company's name?

Just wondered; it could be useful to include in Integrated circuit under an etymology section. --Josh Atkins (talk - contribs) 15:37, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No - the generic term "microchip" was around long before Microchip Technology was founded in 1989.
