Masatoshi Shima
Masatoshi Shima is a Japanese electronics engineer. He was one of the architects of the first microprocessor in the world, Intel 4004. In 1968, Shima worked for Busicom in Japan and came up with the logical design of a specialized processor to transformed into custom three-chip chips. In 1969, he worked with Ted Hoff and Intel's Stanley Mazor to reduce the three-chip Busicom proposal to a single-chip architecture. In 1970, this architecture was converted to a silicon chip by Federico Faggin, the Intel 4004, with Shima's help in logic design. Then he joined Intel in 1972. Here he worked with Faggin to develop the Intel 8080, which was released in 1974. Shima then developed a number of Intel peripheral chips, some of which were used. used in IBM PC, such as 8259 interrupt controller, 8255 parallel port chip, 8253 timer chip, 8257 direct memory access chip, and serial communication USART 8251 chip. Later, he joined Zilog, where he worked with Faggin on the development of Zilog Z80 and Z8000.
