I have two items which use 4004 procs, one is a Prolog M900B E/PROM programmer
ca. 1979.
The manual includes the firmware source. (Somewhat bizarrely, it's
typed/printed onto coding forms.)
Here are the first two pages (photos, not scanned).

I've had to do some reverse engineering and work on the hardware (can provide
schematic) but haven't sat down to examine the firmware.
There are 12 more pages if it's of interest. It's not quite a complete program
though, the plugin modules have chip-specific subroutines in more onboard
1702s, and those aren't included in the source provided.
I do have ROM dumps for two of the modules that could be disassembled.
I had a failed 4201 chip (clock gen), it would be nice to come across a
replacement, but solved the problem with a substitute made from 3 CMOS chips.
