Gordon Moore


Gordon Earl Moore, born in San Francisco, California in 3/1/1929, is an American co-founder and Chairman Emeritus of Intel Corporation. Under him, Intel introduced the world's first single chip microprocessor, the Intel 4004 invented by Intel engineers.

He is widely known for his bold prediction, popularly known as Moore's Law, states that the number of transistors on a chip will double approximately every two years. Intel has been maintaining this pace for decades, using this golden rule as both a guiding principle and a springboard for technological advancement.
