This is the fourth episode on semiconductors. The final episode is about making calculations and reaching catharsis. It is packed with messages that are fitting for the final episode, such as "Engineers are required to have a dual personality," "Now that we understand the principles, we can make a computer on a deserted island (?)," and "Modularization is the backbone of manufacturing." [Table of Contents] 0:00 People who make things are required to be Jekyll and Hyde 0:51 Review of the previous episode - Multiplication and addition can be done by using series and parallel 1:34 Rules. Let's remember the symbols of gates 10:01 Half adder. A magical device that can perform calculations by combining gates 11:40 Before that, let's try doing binary calculations 15:48 Half adder, a machine that can perform binary calculations 21:43 Half adders are insufficient, so let's make a complete "full adder" 26:09 If you connect full adders, you can perform infinite calculations 30:13 We can perform calculations from semiconductors! Now you can make a computer on a deserted island! (?) 32:46 The wonder of modularization and the limits of cognition 37:26 Good non-fiction and computers are similar 40:32 The backbone of manufacturing is modularization [Reference links] ○ "2030 Semiconductor Geopolitics" https://amzn.to/3FMDUul → A good storytelling style that describes the intentions of each country regarding the strategic material of semiconductors. It's interesting, but the imaginary Mizuno is noisy. ○ "Illustrated Introduction to the Basics and Mechanisms of the Latest Semiconductors [3rd Edition]" https://amzn.to/3L8iAk8 → The explanation of the contents of the MOS transistor is based on this. ◯ "How are computers made?" https://amzn.to/3Mk65mU → It's amazing how the simple explanation makes you understand "how computers work in the first place". The explanation of the behavior of the gate was quite helpful. ○ "How to Make a CPU" https://amzn.to/3wdYYXy → A book on how to make a primitive CPU. It's interesting to read even if you don't make it. Horimoto didn't make it. Recommended for those who want to know more about the contents of this series. ○ "Computer Organization and Design, 5th Edition" https://amzn.to/39j42Rq → A textbook for computer scientists. If you want to read a proper explanation, please read it. It's long, so it's hard to read through. Horimoto has only read part of it.
