Intel 4040
Central processing unit

An Intel D4040 Microprocessor
Produced: 1974
Manufacturer: Intel
Instruction Set: pre x86
Socket: 24 pin DIP

The Intel 4040 microprocessor was the successor to the Intel 4004. It was introduced in 1974.

The 4040 was used primarily in games, test, development, and control equipment. The package of the 4040 is more than twice as wide as the 4004 and has 24 pins vs. the 16 of the 4004. The 4040 added 14 instructions, larger stack (8 level), 8 KiB program space, 8 more registers, and interrupt abilities (including shadows of the first 8 registers).

The 4040 family is also referred to as the MCS-40.
