In 1971, one tiny chip invented by an Italian American Physicist started the technology revolution behind today's AI, phones and PCs

The Federico Faggin story begins with a chip smaller than a fingernail but powerful enough to reshape modern life. In 1971, the Intel 4004 became the world's first commercial microprocessor, launching today's computer age. Hidden inside its circuits are Faggin's tiny "F.F." initials, a lasting mark of engineering history. His breakthrough in silicon-gate MOS technology also became the foundation of modern processors.
