Second WAI from TTT

Question

Together yet separate,

I never can retire;

For though I may stop working,

I am reborn by fire.

Conceived by one not dumb,

And born by killing another,

I am perfected by the noise,

Though I never had a mother.

You might use intelligence,

While others ask a doctor.

To solve this one, you may need to ask questions;

I will be your proctor.

Eureka! (not) a car, the model T!

Ummm... no

Does "Aha!" mean I got it right, on the right track, or just "Aha" and nothing more?

On the right track.

i have nothing better then "Frequency" or "Heat"

Sorry

is it a solar panel, or photovoltaic related?

Related to what's related...

Coordinates?

(x,y)=N,o

IDE Ribbon Flat pc cable intel or amd compatible

No.

INCREDIBLE how this hasn't been solved yet... Great WAI!

[spoiler='May have been guessed already, but:

']A circuit board, or circuit traces on the board?

Worth a shot! Trying to keep this thread alive so we can get an answer! LoL

integrated circuit

Together yet separate,-kinda definition of semiconductor

I never can retire;-always on when computer is on

For though I may stop working,-turn off computer

I am reborn by fire.-reboot

Conceived by one not dumb,-Geoffrey W.A. Dummer

And born by killing another,-Jack Kilby

I am perfected by the noise,-Robert Noyce

Though I never had a mother.-all dudes

You might use intelligence,-Intel

While others ask a doctor.-AMD

To solve this one, you may need to ask questions;

I will be your proctor.

But I don't feel like going through all the guesses (sometimes I do, sometimes I don't)

Phoenix?

More guesses:

Steam engine? (engines have a long history - it's feasible that someone may have died during the construction of one)

Smell? (fire smells, as do the dead, and sometimes smells can be symptoms of certain diseases, and heck the "no mother" thing might be a reference to women's greater dislike of farting. Yep, it's a stretch)

Some type of ore or oil?

Glass?

integrated circuit

Congratulations!

Although it wasn't quite the same as my train of thought, you've come to the same conclusion!

Together yet separate,-Two materials used in tandem

I never can retire;-always on (i.e. radio memory, etc.)

For though I may stop working,-circuits will fail

I am reborn by fire.-melted, separated, and rejoined

Conceived by one not dumb,-Geoffrey W.A. Dummer

And born by killing another,-Jack Kilby

I am perfected by the noise,-Robert Noyce
