Moore's Law

Moore's Law is an empirical law developed and later revised by Intel's Gordon Moore which predicts that the IC industry is capable of doubling the number of transistors on a silicon chip every 18 months (originally every year) resulting in declining IC prices and increasing performance. Most design cycles in the electronics industry including embedded-system development firmly rely on Moore's law.
