16-bit application

Software for {MS-DOS} or {Microsoft
Windows} which originally ran on the 16-bit {Intel 8088} and
{80286} {microprocessors}. These used a {segmented address
space} to extend the range of addresses from what is possible
with just a 16-bit address. Programs with more than 64
kilobytes of code or data therefore had to waste time
switching between {segments}. Furthermore, programming with
segments is more involved than programming in a {flat address
space}, giving rise to {warts} like {memory models} in {C} and
{C++}.

Compare {32-bit application}.

1802

An 8-bit {microprocessor} currently manufactured
as CDP1802 by {HARRIS Semiconductor}. It has been around for
ten years at least and is ideally suited for {embedded}
applications. Some of its features are: 8-bit parallel
organisation with bidirectional {data bus} and {multiplexed
address bus}; static design -- no minimum clock frequency;
bit-programmable output port; four input pins which are
directly tested by branch instructions; flexible programmable
I/O mode; single-phase clock, with on-chip oscillator; 16 x 16
register matrix to implement multiple {program counters},
pointers, or {registers}
