In computer architecture, {{{1}}}-bit integers, memory addresses, or other data units are those that are at most {{{1}}} bits {{{2}}} wide. Also, {{{1}}}-bit CPU and ALU architectures are those that are based on registers, address buses, or data buses of that size. {{{1}}}-bit is also a term given to a generation of computers in which {{{1}}}-bit processors are the norm.
