Intel Generations - The First Generation, 4004 to the Pentium-Pro

About this Artwork 

This artwork displays Intel's first twelve chips related to its highly successful x86 microprocessor architecture. Starting with Intel's 4-bit 4004, the world's first microprocessor, this collection maps the evolution to the 8086 and on to the massive Pentium Pro. The chips are mounted on placards that provide information about each of the microprocessors. The background is an image of the Intel 4004 computer chip. Each of the chips is a fully functional Intel chip. Here is a list of the microprocessors used in this piece: Intel 4004, 8008, 4040, 8080, 8085, 8086/8, 80186, 80286, 80386, 80486, Pentium, and Pentium Pro.
