Solution

The correct option is C Chip

A small square or rectangular piece of silica on which several layers of an integrated circuit are etched or imprinted is called Chip.

An integrated circuit or monolithic integrated circuit (also referred to as an IC, a chip, or a microchip) is a set of electronic circuits on one small flat piece (or "chip") of semiconductor material, normally silicon.

Integrated circuits. It's a neat way of cramming hundreds, thousands, millions, or even billions of electronic components onto tiny chips of silicon no bigger than a fingernail. Let's take a closer look at ICs and how they work! Photo: An integrated circuit from the outside.

The major advantages of integrated circuits over those made by interconnecting discrete components are as follows : Extremely small size – Thousands times smaller than discrete circuits. It is because of fabrication of various circuit elements in a single chip of semiconductor material.
