What does intel 4004 mean?

Intel 4004
The Intel 4004 is a 4-bit central processing unit released by Intel Corporation in 1971. The chip design started in April 1970, when Federico Faggin joined Intel, and it was completed under his leadership in January 1971. The first commercial sale of the fully operational 4004 occurred in March 1971 to Busicom Corp. of Japan for which it was originally designed and built as a custom chip. In mid-November of the same year, with the prophetic ad "Announcing a new era in integrated electronics", the 4004 was made commercially available to the general market. The 4004 was history’s first monolithic CPU fully integrated in one small chip. Such a feat of integration was made possible by the use of then-new silicon gate technology allowing to double the number of random-logic transistors and increase the speed by a factor of five compared to the incumbent technology. The 4004 microprocessor was one of 4 chips constituting the MCS-4 chip-set, which included the 4001 ROM, 4002 RAM, and 4003 Shift Register. With these components, small computers with varying amounts of memory and I/O facilities could be built.
