2. The beginning…
1955 - William Shockley - shockley semiconductor
1957 – Gordon Moore & Robert Noyce
- Fairchild Semiconductor
*Intelcorporation started microchips
*Developed 4004 for vizicom calculators
1971 – Invention of Microprocessor
3. • During 1970’s chips were upgraded from 4004
to 8008
1975 - Microcomputer chips such as Scelbi – 8H
and Micral were used
1980- Usage of small microprocessors reduced
• On the other hand desktops and computers
helped for upgradation of microprocessors

8. MICROPROCESSOR CHARACTERSTICS
PROGRAMMABLE DEVICE – Designed by engineers and
programmers to perform a particular task.
MULTIPURPOSE AND MULTITAKING CHIP – Multiple
tasks can be performed simultaneously.
RESISTER-BASED ELECTRONIC DEVICE – Ability of storing
temporary values of variables when program is getting
executed.
Having all these characteristics, it is a device that
accepts binary data as input from a user or a client,
processes it according to the instructions given, and
provides the final result as output.

12. Instrumentation
* Used in medical instrumentation
* Used as controllers
Ex: Frequency controllers,Spectrum analyses
Control
* Used to control home applainces
* Used to control various parameters
13. Communication
* Used in telephone industry
Ex : Digital telephone sets,modem
* Usage of microprocessors in Teleconference
Ex ; LAN , Railway reservations
Office automation & publication
* Used in software packages
* Used for spreadsheet operations,wordprocessing
14. Consumer
* Used in entertainment equipment
* They are applicable to a widerange of
information processing tasks
* Facilitates to make use of vast information
* Most of the electronic devices contain built in
microprocessors
15. Future scope
*Microprocessors are more like market pull rather than
a technology push phenomenon.
Visible Form - Computers etc…
Invisible Form - Controlling and maintaining.
• Development in the usage for Architectural and
technical purpoes
16. • Speeding up of execution – Chips with better
mechanism will be made
• Single Functioning micro processor chips will be
made
• Upgraded models might be seen
ex: 17 MODEL
• Only technology to integrate and evolve itself…
17. Concluding Remarks…
A great 30 year history and a challenge
for next 30!
* Not a wall in performance growth but a slowing down
* Diminishing returns on silicon investment
Not just raw performance but…
* Performance per transistor
* Performance per watt
