IC: Integrated circuit, which encapsulates circuits with specific functions together in a certain pattern, leaving only the pins exposed, forming an integrated block circuit. It can be divided into magnetic sealing, plastic sealing, and soft sealing.
Non IC: Refers to other basic components besides IC, such as resistors, capacitors, etc., covering a wide range.
IC, commonly known as chip, refers to integrated circuits. There are many classifications of electronic components, such as resistors and capacitors, which are called basic components. Chips, on the other hand, integrate many basic components onto a very small circuit board, which is called chips, also known as integrated circuits. Therefore, they can also be called basic components by non ICs, which are called integrated circuits.
