A tiny bug could destroy the whole chip, and Jensen was only twenty-one.
In 1984, he had just joined AMD as a microprocessor designer.
A senior engineer checked every line of his work for tiny mistakes.
Designing computer chips required extreme patience and absolute precision.
Jensen often worked sixty hours a week, checking millions of connections.
Later at LSI Logic, he mastered how chips turn into real products.
At night, he took tough engineering classes at Stanford University.
He wanted to understand every single wire inside the chip.
He earned his master's degree in electrical engineering in 1992.
Nearly ten years of hard engineering built an unshakable foundation.
Two brilliant friends saw his unmatched passion for 3D computing.
In 1993, they walked into a Denny's diner to start a company.
