COLLECTIONS / CURATED PERSPECTIVES

Every chip is part of a story.

Take the long view. Discover connections across eras, companies and engineering ideas.

01Intel 4004
THE ORIGINS OF PERSONAL COMPUTING

Before the billion.

A small number of transistors opened an enormous new world. Explore early processors through original documentation and photographs of surviving silicon.

02AMD Zen 2 CCD
THE CHIPLET APPROACH

A whole, in parts.

A commercial processor is not necessarily a single die. Follow a photographed Zen 2 CCD into the Ryzen 5 3600 product and compare the scope of each record.
