The Intel 4004 is a 4-bit central processing unit (CPU) released by Intel Corporation in 1971. Sold for US$60 (equivalent to $450 in 2023 [2]), it was the first commercially produced microprocessor, [3] and the first in a long line of Intel CPUs.
Intel Haswell Core i7-4771 CPU, sitting atop its original packaging that contains an OEM fan-cooled heatsink. This generational list of Intel processors attempts to present all of Intel's processors from the 4-bit 4004 (1971) to the present high-end offerings.
Intel 4004 or 8008 1972 Typewriter-sized general-purpose data processing machine introduced sometime before 1973. Also used Intel's PROM and RAM chips. [9] [10] MicroSystems International CPS-1: MIL MF7114: 1973: Using a locally produced microprocessor based on the design of the Intel 4004. First built in 1972, a small number shipped in early ...
Intel's Ted Hoff was assigned to studying Busicom's design, and came up with a much more elegant, 4 ICs architecture centered on what was to become the 4004 microprocessor surrounded by a mixture of 3 different ICs containing ROM, shift registers, input/output ports and RAM—Intel's first product (1969) was the 3101 Schottky TTL bipolar 64-bit ...
This week marks the 50th anniversary of Intel's 4004 — the first computer microprocessor. Charles Babbage designed his analytical engine in the 1840s and though he couldn't get it built before ...
The Intel 4040 ("forty-forty") is the second 4-bit microprocessor designed and manufactured by Intel. Introduced in 1974 as a successor to the Intel 4004 , the 4040 was produced with a 10 μm process and includes silicon gate enhancement-load PMOS logic technology.
The first commercial microprocessor was the binary-coded decimal (BCD-based) Intel 4004, [2] [3] developed for calculator applications in 1971; it had a 4-bit word length, but had 8-bit instructions and 12-bit addresses. It was succeeded by the Intel 4040, which added interrupt support and a variety of other new features.
After the 4004, Intel designed the 8008 (architecture by Computer Terminal Corporation, design by Federico Faggin and Hal Feeney). Shima then joined Intel in 1972. [2] He was employed to implement the transistor-level logic of Intel's next microprocessor, which became the Intel 8080 (conception and architecture by Federico Faggin), released in ...
