Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Semiconductor Chips at Free against Microprocessor's $5.99. Semiconductor Chips also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 39 months). Microprocessor's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
