In 1980, Hoff was named the first Intel Fellow, which is the highest technical position in the company. He stayed in that position until 1983 when he left for Atari. [3] After the video game crash of 1983, Atari was sold in 1984, and Hoff became an independent consultant.
Feb 1, 1994 · By the age of 12 he had moved on to electronics, building things with parts ordered from an Allied Radio Catalog, a shortwave radio kit, and surplus relays and motors salvaged from the garbage at his father’s employer, General Railway Signal Co., in Rochester, NY.
Marcian “Ted” Hoff (PhD '62 EE), is best known as the architect of the first microprocessor. Intel’s 4004 was released in November 1971, 35 years ago this month. The history that his ingenuity helped spawn is now the subject of a new DVD, the Microprocessor Chronicles.
American engineer Ted Hoff (born 1937) is credited with changing the face of the world as one of the key people behind the creation of the first microprocessor. While working for Intel in 1969, he developed the architecture that made a single-chip Central Processing Unit (CPU) possible.
Apr 15, 2020 · As the electrical engineer responsible for the Busicom design, Ted Hoff thought that it could be achieved with a 4-bit central processing unit (CPU) on a single microchip.
Ted Hoff was the first to recognize that Intel's new silicon-gated MOS technology might make a single-chip CPU possible if a simple enough architecture could be formed. Hoff developed this architecture with just over 2000 transistors.
