Revisiting the 4004: Intel's accidental revolution
Source: News.com
_________ This Thursday marks the 35th anniversary of the public announcement of the 4004, the world's first microprocessor. A package of three chips, the 4004 could calculate numbers from a program, a task that until then had required larger, bulkier computers. The chip and its successors revolutionized electronics and made Intel a household name around the world, although the company almost lost control of the invention and didn't fully understand its importance for years. |
