Biographical / Historical

Carver Andress Mead was born in Bakersfield, California on May 1, 1934. He grew up in Big Creek, California in the community located behind the Big Creek Hydroelectric Plant Number 8. His early interest in electronics led Mead to Caltech as a freshman in 1952, and he graduated with his B.S. in 1956, his M.S. in 1957, and his Ph.D. in 1960, all in the field of Electrical Engineering. Mead began his teaching career as an Instructor at Caltech in 1958. After moving up the ranks as Professor, he was honored as the Gordon and Betty Moore Professor of Computer Science in 1980. During his teaching tenure, Mead taught courses in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, and Computation and Neural Systems.
In addition to his forty-year teaching career, Professor Mead's transistor research in solid state electronics led him to pioneering design methodologies for very large scale integration, or VLSI of integrated circuits in microchip technology. He is credited with famously coining the term Moore's Law (named after Intel co-founder, Gordon Moore), which predicted that every year the number of transistors would double in an integrated circuit. Mead has contributed to over 80 patents and to over 200 published works, including the widely used textbook, Introduction to VLSI Systems in 1980. He has been honored with many awards and honors, including the National Medal of Technology from President George W. Bush in 2003. As of 1999, Carver Mead holds the title of Gordon and Betty Moore Professor of Engineering and Applied Science, Emeritus, and remains active in his research and in the Caltech community.
For more information on Carver A. Mead, the 1996 Carver A. Mead oral history interview with Shirley K. Cohen transcript can be accessed at Caltech Archives Oral Histories  
In 2017, Carver Mead documented his donation of materials to the Caltech Archives with the AMT film crew on hand. He was inspired to create a series of videos where he described the history of his science and technology including, "My First Chip." The videos can be accessed through the Carver Mead YouTube Channel
