Evolution of Microprocessor: Tanay, Karl Charton M. Bscs 1F

The document traces the evolution of Intel microprocessors from 1971 to 2010. It details the introduction of early 4-bit and 8-bit processors like the 4004 and 8008 that helped power early calculators and computers. In the 1980s and 90s, Intel released 16-bit and 32-bit processors like the 8086, 386, and 486 that established the x86 architecture. More recent processors include the Pentium, Core, i3, i5, and i7 lines which increased performance and introduced multi-core and 64-bit capabilities. Each generation brought greater transistor counts, higher clock speeds, and smaller manufacturing processes.
