2009 Junkins Scholarships

TI chairman, president and CEO, Rich Templeton, recognized 35 recipients of the National Merit Jerry R. Junkins Memorial Scholarship at a luncheon recently at the company's headquarters in Dallas.

The Junkins Scholarships, named in honor of TI's former chairman, president and CEO, are awarded to National Merit® Scholarship Program finalists who are sons or daughters of active, retired or deceased TI employees. This year's scholars, who represent the largest group since TI began awarding the scholarships in 1996, come from schools in eight U.S. states and China. They represent the most states ever and the first award to a student from an international school.

TI encourages its employees to take part in the communities where they live and work. Besides volunteering, many are actively involved in sharing cultures, enjoying music and art, learning about nature, and experiencing the many other assets their cities offer.

First Handheld Calculator
The first handheld calculator was invented at TI in 1967. The project was code-named "Cal Tech." This model shows the application of TI's thermal printhead to the calculator.
First TI Logo
When the name Texas Instruments was finalized, Erik Jonsson began thinking about an official company logo. He enageged Torger (Torg) Thompson, an artist with the advertising agency that had handled GSI's business, to design the TI logo. "How much will you charge?" Jonsson asked. "Five hundred dollars," Thompson replied. Both men agreed. It was a fair price. After several revisions, the artist presented Jonsson an acceptable logo design, essentially the same TI has used ever since, although the lines of a ragged Texas coastline would be smoothed out in later revisions of the design. It would affectionately be called the "TI bug" by employees. Jonsson, always frugal with the company's cash, offered Thompson 500 shares of the new company's unlisted stock instead of the $500. "It may be worth a lot more someday," Jonsson said. Thompson replied, "I'll take the cash."

First Integrated Circuit Invented by Jack Kilby
Jack Kilby invented the integrated circuit at Texas Instruments in 1958. Comprised of only a transistor and other components on a slice of germanium, Kilby's invention, 7/16-by-1/16-inches in size, revolutionized the electronics industry. The roots of almost every electronic device we take for granted today can be traced back to Dallas more than 40 years.
First Transistor Radio - Regency
The first transistor radio--the Regency TR-1. Early models of the first radios are in the Smithsonian Museum and can be viewed on the museum's website. Regency Radio.
First Silicon Transistor
In 1954, Texas Instruments was the first company to start commercial production of silicon transistors instead of using germanium. Silicon raised the power output while lowering operating temperatures, enabling the miniaturization of electronics. The first commercial transistor radio was also produced in 1954 - powered by TI silicon transistors.
