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 ...

That first chip was called the 4004. It was 1/8" by 1/16" with 2300 transistors etched into the silicon. And all by itself it was as powerful as ENIAC, the early (mammoth at 30 tons!) computer ...

At the core of every smartphone, computer, and digital gadget lies a technological marvel that has transformed the 20th and ...

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 ...

One of their more recent videos is a look at the Intel 4004, the progenitor to all modern ... node doesn't exactly correlate to its exact transistor size, the newer chip features transistors ...

The first microprocessor. Designed by Marcian E. "Ted" Hoff at Intel in 1971, the 4004 was a 4-bit, general-purpose CPU initially developed for the Japanese Busicom calculator. Running at a clock ...
