The silicon wizards at Flylogic have certainly posted an interesting chip this time around. The Intel 4004 was the first widely used microprocessor. The logic gates are much larger than you’d ...

An incredibly dedicated and talented enthusiast has managed to boot Linux on a 4-bit microprocessor meant for pocket calculators from 1971.

WTF?! A well-known hacker has done the impossible. He got a stripped-down version of Linux to run on a 4-bit Intel chip from the early 1970s. Sure, it takes nearly five days for the kernel to boot ...

To pull oneself up by one's bootstraps Linux boots in 4.76 days on the Intel 4004 Historic 4-bit microprocessor from 1971 can execute Linux commands over days or weeks.

Investigates the context for the development of one of the earliest microprocessors, the Intel 4004. It considers the contributions made by Intel employees, most notably Marcian E. "Ted" Hoff, Jr. and ...

If the Core Voltage offset is greyed out in Intel Extreme Tuning Utility and you undervolt the CPU, see this post for the working fixes.

The Intel 4004 was among the first microprocessors and one of the first to use the MOS silicon-gate technology. In the decades long race to build bigger CPUs, it’s been mostly forgotten. Forg… ...
