Silicon Chips Are So Yesterday The Future is Plastic Chips

Today s processors are built on silicon. But are there alternatives It turns out you can build flexible electronic devices using a plastic substrates with thinfilm transistors (TFTs). Arm, in partnership with PragmatIC, has built a fully functional CortexM0+ microprocessor including the interrupt controller, IO, RAM, and ROM on plastic. It is called PlasticArm How CPUs and Processors are Made for Smartphones, Laptops, and Desktops: Introduction to Android app development:
