The first generation of microcomputers available was based on ____ bit microprocessors.

  • A.4
  • B.8
  • C.16
  • D.64

Answer: B

Correct answer: 8

The first microcomputers were built on 8-bit processors - the Intel 8080, the Motorola 6800, the MOS 6502 and the Zilog Z80. Eight bits is one byte, so a register held \( 2^8 = 256 \) distinct values, and the 16-bit address bus reached 64 KB of memory.
