Thirty years ago, on June 8, 1978, Intel Corp. introduced its first 16-bit microprocessor, the 8086, with a splashy ad heralding “the dawn of a new era.” Overblown? Sure, but also prophetic. While the ...

Scientists at MIT built a 16-bit microprocessor out of carbon nanotubes and even ran a program on it, a new paper reports. Silicon-based computer processors seem to be approaching a limit to how small ...

The D68000-BDM soft core is binary-compatible with the industry standard 68000 32-bit microcoprocessor. It has a 16-bit data bus and a 24-bit address ...

Max Shulaker and a group of researchers he leads has developed a working 16-bit microprocessor built from over 14,000 carbon nanotube transistors that is the most complex ever demonstrated. The ...

The D68000-CPU32+ soft core is binary-compatible with the industry standard 68000’s CPU32+ version of the 32-bit microcontroller. The D68000-CPU32+ ha ...

This processor is an advanced version of the indigenously designed 16-bit Vikram 1601 microprocessor, which has been operating in the avionics system of ISRO's launch vehicles since 2009, ISRO said in ...
