Dr. Marcian Edward "Ted" Hoff Jr. (born October 28, 1937 in Rochester, New York), is one of the inventors of the microprocessor. He joined Intel in 1968 as employee number 12, and is credited with coming up with the idea of a universal processor instead of custom-designed circuits. His insight started the microprocessor revolution in the early 1970s. In 1980, he was named the first Intel Fellow, the highest technical position in the company. He stayed in that position until 1983. He received his bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1958. He received his first two patents while working during his undergraduate college summers for the General Railway Company of Rochester, New York. He then received a National Science Foundation Fellowship to enroll in Stanford University, where he received his master's degree (1959) and PhD (1962).

Dr. Marcian Hoff Jr. is one of the inventors of the microprocessor.He was born October 28, 1937 in Rochester, New York.Not all that much. He just got frustrated thinking that the customer's (Busicom) calculator chipset logic that Intel had assigned him to implement in silicon was over 10 times as complex as the logic in the DEC PDP-8 across the room. All their chipset could do was desk calculator functions while the PDP-8 could do 1000s times more!!!He suggested the customer's design be discarded and that he design a computer chipset (instead of a dedicated calculator chipset). That took some convincing at both Intel and Busicom - the result being the 4004 microprocessor.
there are no real inventors of 4th generation computers, but it started with the invention of the microprocessors made by intel, which made computing at home possible, along with IBM...

hi bye i hate yo! Marcian Hoff was one of the inventors for the microprocessor. The microprocessor is like the engine for the computer. When you turn on the computer the microprocessor helps the computer start.
He help invent the Intel 4004, the world first microprocessor
Marcian Hoff is credited with inventing the microprocessor, a pivotal development in computing that significantly transformed computer architecture. Introduced in 1971 with the Intel 4004, the microprocessor integrated the functions of a computer's central processing unit (CPU) onto a single chip. This innovation led to smaller, more efficient, and affordable computers, paving the way for the personal computer revolution and the modern computing era we know today. Hoff's work laid the foundation for the continued advancement of technology in countless applications.
