==History==
The 8080 is often said to be the "first truly usable microprocessor". Its predecessor, the first 8-bit microprocessor [[Intel 8008]], had a rigid seven-level address call stack instead of a flexible Stack Pointer. The 8008 instruction set is was itself based on the CPU board of the Datapoint 2200 computer.
Despite what its naming suggests, the Intel 8008 was developed independently of the [[Intel 4004]]. They were separate projects with distinct architectures and purposes, not a progression or derivative of one another.
