What Does Nanochip Mean?
A nanochip is an electronic integrated circuit so small that it can only be measured properly in the nanometer scale. Although current technology is able to create chip components in the nanometer scale, it is still not possible to make the complete chip in nanometer scale. For this to become reality, each component of the chip has to be created in the atomic scale, meaning each atom of the material has to be manipulated to form the smaller components of the nanochip.
Techopedia Explains Nanochip
The nanochip scale has long been the goal of modern technology. With nanochips it would be possible to have computers the size of micro SD cards but thousands of times more powerful because so many more components could fit in a very small space. The manufacturing costs would also be very minimal and the energy required to run them would be minuscule.
