He (Jay Miner) moved to Atari, Inc. in the late 1970s. One of his first successes was to combine an entire breadboard of components into a single chip, known as the TIA. The TIA was the display hardware for the Atari 2600, which would go on to sell millions. After working on the TIA he headed up the design of the follow-on chip set known as ANTIC and CTIA for which he held a patent. These chips would be used for the Atari 8-bit family of home computers and the Atari 5200 video game system.
