That same year Intel introduced the erasable programmable read-only memory ( EPROM) chip, which was the company’s most successful product line until 1985.
Because DRAMs were cheaper and used less power than core memory, they quickly became the standard memory devices in computers worldwide.įollowing its DRAM success, Intel became a public company in 1971. It was purchased first by the American technology company Honeywell Incorporated in 1970 to replace the core memory technology in its computers.
However, its sibling, the 1103, a one-kilobit dynamic random-access memory ( DRAM) chip, was successful and the first chip to store a significant amount of information. Intel’s initial products were memory chips, including the world’s first metal oxide semiconductor, the 1101, which did not sell well. Soon they were joined by Andrew Grove, another Fairchild. In 1968 Noyce and Moore left Fairchild Semiconductor to start their own company. Noyce, Moore, and Grove served as chairman and chief executive officer (CEO) in succession during the first three decades of the company’s history. Immediately after founding Intel, Noyce and Moore recruited other Fairchild employees, including Hungarian-born American businessman Andrew Grove. Moore was the head of research and development at Fairchild Semiconductor. Noyce was the coinventor in 1959 of the silicon integrated circuit when he was general manager of Fairchild Semiconductor, a division of Fairchild Camera and Instrument. Intel’s founders were experienced, middle-aged technologists who had established reputations. Unlike the archetypal Silicon Valley start-up business with its fabled origins in a youthful founder’s garage, Intel opened its doors with $2.5 million in funding arranged by Arthur Rock, the American financier who coined the term venture capitalist. Intel was founded in July 1968 by American engineers Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore. The company’s name comes from “ integrated electronics.” Beginnings It is headquartered in Santa Clara, California.
