Intel’s forgotten past: Wayne D. Pickette, African American father of the microprocessor
The microprocessor is one of the greatest technological advances of the Twentieth Century. The official history of the development of the first microprocessor leaves the reader with the impression that Faggin, Hoff, Mazor, and Shima were the sole designers and inventors of the 4004 microprocessor. These men, however, stood on the back of a giant, a young black inventor by the name of Wayne Pickette....
