2020 - Intel's annual revenue peaks at $77.87 billion, bolstered by pandemic sales of PCs. Revenue then declines as Intel struggles with increased competition from AMD and Nvidia. Nvidia overtakes ...
Back in the day before the existence of basic microprocessors such as the Intel 4004, and long before our present processors with millions and billions of gates, digital-engineering design was ...
Transistors became the steppingstone between vacuum tubes and modern computer technology. The year 1971 saw the advent of the first microprocessor: Intel's 4004, incorporating 2,300 transistors and ...
The emu8080on4004 project (Google Translate) offers a way to run 8080 code on a 4004 CPU. Finally! The 4004 development board is a homebrew affair, and the emulator works well enough that an 8080 ...
The Intel 8088 Micro-processor ran at 5MHz, representing a 50-times speed boost against the 4004 chip eight years before, and it included 29,000 transistors – which was more than 12 times the ...
Intel 4004 chip, Source: Peter1912/Wikimedia Commons The precursor to the microprocessor was the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor, or MOSFET. This was developed in 1960 at Bell ...
1971: Intel introduced the world’s first commercial microprocessor, the 4004, which contained 2,300 transistors and marked the beginning of programmable computing. Analog ICs: These ICs process ...
