As part of his computer science curriculum at Texas A&M University in the early 2000s, [Paul Krizak] took a computer architecture course on the basics of their functioning. This and being expos… ...

The 8-Bit computer is based on the Simple-As-Possible (SAP) computer architecture described in the book “Digital Computer Electronics” by [Paul Malvino] and [Jerald Brown].

In a video that has now amassed over 112,000 views, Kyle, known online as Shadowman39, debuted the Arithmetic and Logic Unit, or ALU, and showed how it processes and computes information in 8-bit ...

We've actually already seen one completely home-built 8-bit computer but, while Jake Eisenmann wasn't afraid to show off his creation, Kyle Hovey is actually inviting us along for the ride. The ...

A Harvard architecture and a three-stage pipeline provide single-cycle performance, but with 32-bit operations and registers. Bit handling was a deficiency in existing Arm architectures.

Kyle Hovey has decided to build his own 8-bit CPU from scratch, out of breadboard, NVRAM chips, surface-mount transistors, and lots and lots of wire -- and he's blogged his experience, so you can ...

Upgrading from an 8-bit to a 32-bit microcontroller (MCU) typically requires substantial software changes, even when a high-level language like C is employed, because the peripheral ...

That was followed by the 8088, which had the same 16-bit internal architecture but was connected to an 8-bit data bus, in 1979.

Polish engineer Piotr "Osa" Ostapowicz recently unveiled "Atarino," which may be the world's smallest 8-bit Atari computer re-creation, according to retro computing site Atariteca.
