ultra large scale integration

Short for ultra-large-scale integration, ULSI is an IC (integrated circuit) design proposed in 1984 with support for over 1,000,000 transistors and 100,000 logic gates. ULSI was suggested as a replacement for VLSI (very-large-scale integration). However, as the number of transistors grew rapidly it no longer made sense to use these names to describe ICs. Today's ICs can have billions of transistors.
