Dear Experts,
I opened up a small radio about the size of thumbdrive. The circuit is so small.
Is there a way to shrink a 555 timer chip which is so big compared to that radio?
Radios should require transistors right? But I could not find the usual size transistor on this radio.

Also, the above circuit has a small black dot. I believe its some controller inside. But its so small , about 5 mm only.
1. How to convert a normal sized circuit into something as small as a tiny radio?
2. What is the black dot in the picture? What is the purpose of the black glue(dried)?
3. If there is such thing as minaturizing a normal circuit , please could you give me some info on this process?
sincerely
