Intel 80286 CPU Employee Clock Award (1994)
Item #775
This Intel employee presentation clock has a rare Intel 286 processor chip die mounted on the lid cover as well as a graphic image of an Intel fab worker inspecting a silicon wafer.
The Intel 80286 16-bit CPU was introduced in 1982 and was produced up until the early 1990's at speeds of 4 MHz up to 25 MHz. The 80286 contained 134,000 transistors and was manufactured using Intel's 1.5 µm HMOS process. It was primarily designed for use in IBM PC/AT compatible computers.
This presentation clock was awarded to an Intel employee in celebration of their 15 years of service with the company, it is inscribed with the name of the Intel employee on the back side of the lid (Intel award dated 1994). These were also given out the previous year, in 1993.
Clock measures 2-1/2 inches across and is a combination of polished steel and brass and is quite heavy. Made for Intel by Jostens.

Intel Pentium P852 Processor CPU wood engraved clock employee award (1995)
Item #1041
This is a wood desktop award from Intel given to employees to celebrate the Pentium P852 process. Features a clock showing all the participating virtual factories involved (D2 - Santa Clara, California, F10 - Ireland, and F11- Rio Rancho, New Mexico). It is engraved with the Rio Rancho fab logo and features an actual Pentium processor chip die in the upper right corner.There is a recess for pen holding located on the top, and the bottom has felt pads and the manufacturers label.
During the 1990s, Intel's Fab 11 in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, became a cornerstone of the company’s semiconductor innovation, particularly with the development and implementation of the P852 process. This advanced manufacturing node was instrumental in producing the powerful Pentium microprocessors that revolutionized personal computing.
The P852 process represented a key step in Intel's evolution toward more compact and efficient chip designs. It enabled the production of CPUs with greater transistor density, improved power efficiency, and higher clock speeds—critical attributes for supporting the increasingly demanding software and multimedia applications of the era. Pentium processors manufactured using P852 were known for their superscalar architecture, which allowed them to execute multiple instructions per clock cycle. This leap in performance helped cement Intel's dominance in the CPU market throughout the decade.
Fab 11 played a vital role in bringing the P852 process to scale. As one of Intel's leading-edge fabrication facilities, it was outfitted with advanced cleanroom environments and precision photolithography equipment necessary to mass-produce chips with ever-decreasing feature sizes. The site’s engineering teams were also instrumental in fine-tuning the manufacturing process to ensure reliability and high yields.
Intel’s investment in Fab 11 and the development of the P852 process reflected a broader industry shift toward miniaturization and performance optimization. These efforts laid the foundation for the rapid pace of innovation that continued into the 2000s, influencing generations of computing technologies.

Intel 4004 First Microprocessor Anniversary Clock (1996)
Item #283 (Items #302, 740 Similar)
This quality, limited edition timepiece was given out exclusively to Intel U.S. employees in November of 1996 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the microprocessor, measured from November 15, 1971, the date the first advertisement for the Intel 4004 first appeared in Electronic News Magazine.
Mounted on the clock face near the 12 o'clock position is an Intel 4004 Microprocessor Chip. Due to the extreme rarity of these early Intel 4004 silicon die and wafers (Intel itself only has one Intel 4004 wafer in its entire Museum collection), it is still an unanswered mystery how Intel came about this many 4004 chips to produce these limited edition clocks.
Clock is Brass, with glass bevel, solid metal throughout, hinged to fold like a book, and synchronized by Japanese movement.
Item comes with original black gift box with printed gold Intel logo and includes a printed information card describing the historical significance of the Intel 4004 Microprocessor. Card has facsimile signatures from Andy groove, Craig Barrett & Gordon Moore. Includes black gift box and paperwork from the clocks manufacturer on it's care and maintenance.
