A Microchip is a container gadget that can store other gadgets within its circuit board; it can be toggled on and off with logic.

Usage and behavior

A microchip functions as a way to optimize logic of any size through its circuit board. While a microchip's circuit board is opened, gadgets can be placed onto the board's surface.

A circuit board can have its size, position, and shape altered; the microchip can also be opened and closed to hide the circuit board, though this has no effect on the gadgets stored on it.
