The vacuum tubes were replaced by solid-state transistors, which made computers smaller, faster, reliable, and cheaper.
The transistors computer was called the second generation of computers. The vacuum tubes were used as the earliest digital electronic computer back from 1930 to 1940, while the vacuum was widely used from 1950 to 1960.
The vacuum was replaced by transistors, which are composed of semiconductors that are used in the manufacturing of smartphones, tablets, and also for making computers. A transistor is made of silicon and other semiconductor material; it serves as a device that magnifies its electrical output. It also serves as a building block for a computer circuit.
The transistors are no longer in use. They are now replaced by the third-generation computer, which is called the integrated circuit.
