upps, so that's what I found at intel.com

the story of the traffic light controllers was the 8080, not the 4004...

8085 2 MHz March 1976 3-micron 6,500 64 KB
Toledo scale. Computed cost from weight and price. High level of integration, operating for first time on a single 5-volt power supply (down from 12 volts).

8080 2 MHz April 1974 6-micron 6,000 64 KB
Traffic light controller, Altair computer (first PC).

8008 200 KHz April 1972 10-micron 3,500 16 KB
Dumb terminals, general calculators, bottling machines, data/character manipulation

4004 108 KHz Nov. 1971 10-micron 2,300 640 Bytes
Busicom calculator, arithmetic manipulation

Many traffic lights also use 8085

The RCA CDP 1802 was used in several do it yourself computers:

COSMAC Elf (Radio Electronics project, about 1976)
Quest Electronics Super Elf (a kit based on the original Elf with many expansions)
Netronics Elf II (another kit based on the original project)


Most of all the 1802 was used in various space probes like Galileo. In fact I have read in several places that the 1802 originally was made for the Voyager probes.

Since it still seems to be in production, the 1802 must be one of the oldest CPUs still available.

Ah so technically, their animal counter-parts are lions of the 10th Animal kingdom?

It's nice to see we have some typically thorough Germans here making sure everything is on track. I too rememeber when IBM spun off Lexmark. Also the first laser was only 1-2 ppm.

Thanks guys, for your accuracy.

NO WAY!! You mean to tell me that Prolog you won for $45 had a c4004 in it?!!!!!!!! JARRRGGHH!!


I got it. - thanks Gennadiy!

It contains a P4040, so far for my hope;-(
But anyway, within the ProLog 900 now I have a 4004 and a 4040 based machine:-)
And the 900 contained a NS 4004 in C package!

I got one from ebay, it's a funny toy from the early 80ies but there are only some black ceramic recrangles "glued" on a board.
Nothing what I call a chip.

As the CDS appears some times on ebay and it is mentioned that it "shall contain a 4004" but because of "a special screwdriver necessary to open" this can't be checked.
I did a lot of searches and found two websites that told the same.
But anyway, a 4004 looks different.

So beware if you see this Item on ebay and you don't want it for what it is.
Prices between $25 and about $299 (Buy it now)...

I got mine for $94 within shipping to Germany, so it is an expensive toy but with the 14 extra program cartridges I will have a lot of fun with my little boy:-)
