This is a timeline of Intel, one of the world's largest and highest valued semiconductor chip makers.

Big picture

Time period Key developments at Intel
1970–1980 Intel manufactures a variety of semiconductors—from DRAM to processors. It goes IPO in 1971.
1981–1986 Intel's share of DRAM decreases due to competition with Japan, while its share of processor manufacturing increases (and goes through a "valley of death" in 1985–1986). Andrew Grove presides over its difficult decision to transition away from primarily making DRAM memory chips into primarily making processors. Intel also contracts with IBM to establish Intel chips as the standard for the personal computer, paving way for Intel's dominance over the market.
1987–1998 Andrew Grove becomes CEO of Intel in 1987. This era is dominated by a boom in personal computer sales. The Intel-IBM alliance is fragile, but Intel benefits by setting the standard for "IBM Clones" like Compaq. Intel also encounters increasing competition from AMD. By 1998, Intel rolls out 3 major semiconductor lines for the personal computer market. From 1987 to 1998, Intel's stock price rose 31.6 percent a year and revenues grew from $1.9 billion to $25.1 billion.[1]
1998–2005 Craig Barrett becomes Intel CEO. The Internet was beginning to usher in massive changes in e-commerce and consumer behavior. Intel launches Centrino mobile technology, which helps usher in the wireless era.
2005–2011 With Moore's Law starting to slow down in 2005, Intel starts releasing multicore processors.[2] By the end of this period, Intel also gains significant traction in its competition against Advanced Micro Devices (AMD).
2012–2015 Smartphone purchases significantly increase, but by the end of this period, PC sales start to decline (even though Intel still retains dominance in the PC share of the semiconductor market). Intel's smartphone processors still fail to gain significant traction. Intel also starts to manufacture processors for the Internet of Things market.


Full timeline

Year Month and date Event type Details
1968 July 18 Company Intel is founded by Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, both who left Fairchild Semiconductor.[3]
1969 May 1 Competition Advanced Micro Devices is founded by Jerry Sanders. This company would become the second-largest supplier and only significant rival to Intel in the market for x86-based microprocessors.
1970 October Products Intel comes out with its 3rd product, the Intel 1103, which put Intel on the map.[4]
1971 October 13 Company Intel goes IPO at a price of $23.50 a share. At 350,000 shares, this sums to a total of $8.225M.[5]
1971 November 15 Product Intel launches its first microprocessor, the 4004.[6][7]
1972 April Product Intel announces the first 8-bit microprocessor, the 8008.[6][7][8]

1979 November Product Intel launches "Operation Crush", a campaign to establish the 8086 as the standard for the 16-bit microprocessor market (which was competing with the technically superior Motorola 68000). This finally convinces IBM to adopt the 8086 in its upcoming personal computer.[4]
1980 Product Intel and Xerox introduce the cooperative Ethernet project.[6]
1982 February 1 Product Intel launches the 16-bit Intel 286 microprocessor, which features 134,000 transistors and is built into many PCs.[6]

1986 September Partnerships Compaq buys the 386 for its Deskpro personal computer. Compaq was one of several IBM clones that would adopt Intel processors, which shifted control of the computing industry from IBM to Intel.[4]
1986 Legal The US-Japan Semiconductor Trade Agreement is signed, opening up Japanese markets to US semiconductor markets.
1989 April 10 Product Intel introduces the 80486 microprocessor, which it sole-sources for 4 years. This offers backwards compatibility.[4]
1989 October Marketing Intel launches the "Red X" marketing campaign by discrediting its original 16-bit and 8-bit products, in order to encourage more people to adopt 32-bit computing.[10]
1990 June 3 Team Robert Noyce suddenly dies from a heart attack.[11]
1990 November Competition Intel loses its suit against AMD. This loss allows AMD to create clones of the 386 processor.[12]
1991 Spring Product Intel decides that it will stick with CISC architecture, and cuts off support for RISC architecture, which was internally developed by Les Kohn.[4]
1991 Company Intel starts the Intel Inside marketing campaign.[6][13]
1992 Competition Intel becomes the top-ranked seller for semiconductor sales. It has retained its top ranking ever since.[6]
1993 March Product Intel launches the Pentium processor, which has 3.1 million transistors, initial speeds of 60 mHz, features an integrated floating-point unit, and is built on a 0.8 micron bi-CMOS process.[6][14]
1994 December Product Intel suffers a public relations disaster when the CNN publicized the story that there was a flaw in the way that the Pentium chip did division. Intel argued that the flaw was irrelevant, but then IBM halted shipments of Pentium-based computers, forcing Intel to reverse course and offer a no-questions-asked return policy.[15]
