A founder of industry pioneer Fairchild Semiconductor, Moore in 1968 co-founded Intel, which grew into the world’s largest semiconductor maker at one point.
The torrid rate of progress made Intel’s technology the hardware heart of the personal computer revolution, then the internet revolution, until the company’s Asian rivals challenged its leadership."Intel will be the steward of Moore’s Law for decades to come,” chief executive officer Pat Gelsinger said in a January 2022 interview.Carver Mead, an engineering professor at the California Institute of Technology, came up with the name Moore’s Law.
Moore was director of research and development at Fairchild when he made his famous projection in an article,"Cramming More Components Onto Integrated Circuits,” for the April 19, 1965, edition of Electronics magazine. Intel’s proxy statement in 2006 showed Moore owned 173 million shares. That’s the last time his name appears in the company’s regulatory filings.In 2000, Moore set up the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, which reported assets of US$9.5bil as of 2021, making it one of the biggest private grant-making foundations in the US.
Moore and seven co-workers, including Robert Noyce, left to found Fairchild in 1957 with US$3,500 of their own money and a US$1.5mil investment from Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corp. Shockley dubbed them the"Traitorous Eight”. Moore"does not boast, although his record of achievement provides a great deal to boast about,” Richard Tedlow wrote in his 2006 biography of Grove.
