The First Microprocessor Is Intel 4004

The Intel 4004 was the world's first microprocessor—a complete general-purpose CPU on a single chip. Released in March 1971, and using cutting-edge silicon-gate technology, the 4004 marked the beginning of Intel's rise to global dominance in the processor industry.
