Se sikwi a entegre fabrike sou sifas la nan yon chip semiconductor yo rele tou yon sikwi mens-fim entegre. Yon lot kalite epe-fim sikwi entegre (ibrid sikwi entegre) se yon sikwi miniaturized ki konpoze de aparey semiconductor endepandan ak eleman pasif entegre nan yon substra oswa sikwi tablo.
Soti nan 1949 rive 1957, Werner Jacobi, Jeffrey Dummer, Sidney Darlington, Yasuo Tarui te devlope Prototype, men moden sikwi entegre yo te envante pa Jack Kilby an 1958. Pou sa, li te genyen Prize la Nobel nan Fizik nan 2000, men Robert Noyce, ki moun ki tou devlope yon sikwi moden ak pratik entegre an menm tan an, te mouri kom byen bone kom 1990.
