Intel Microprocessor

The image features an 'Intel Inside' sticker, representing the microprocessor brand owned by Intel Corporation. Originally founded in 1968 in Mountain View, California, by Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, Intel revolutionized the computing industry with the invention of the x86 series of microprocessors.

Intel's manufacturing is a global operation. While the company is headquartered in the United States, it operates an extensive network of wafer fabrication facilities (fabs) and assembly/test sites across the world, including significant locations in the USA, Ireland, Israel, Malaysia, Vietnam, and China. As the world's largest semiconductor chip manufacturer by revenue, Intel remains a largely independent public company (Intel Corporation) headquartered in Santa Clara, California, and continues to be a dominant force in the global technology sector into 2026 and beyond.
