The Motorola 6809 is an 8-bit ( with some 16-bit features ) microprocessor CPU from Motorola, designed by Terry Ritter and Joel Boney and introduced 1978.

Other features were one of the first hardware-implementations of a multiplication instruction in an MPU, full 16-bit arithmetic, and an especially fast interrupt system.

Until release 2. 0 in April 1992, OS / 2 ran in 16-bit protected mode and therefore could not benefit from the Intel 80386's much simpler 32-bit flat memory model and virtual 8086 mode features.

It proved unpopular as it did not include a mouse ( which is an essential part of the IIGS, much like the Macintosh ); the keyboard, although functional, does not mimic all the features and functions of the Apple Desktop Bus keyboard, as well as lacking a numeric keypad ; and some cards designed for the new 16-bit machine did not fit in the Apple IIe's slanted case either.

Direct3D 11. 1 also features minor updates to the shader language, such as larger constant buffers and optional double-precision instructions, as well as improved blending modes and mandatory support for 16-bit color formats to improve the performance of entry-level GPUs such as Intel HD Graphics.

It has a 16-bit fixed length instructions for high code density, features a hardware multiply – accumulate ( MAC ) block for DSP algorithms and has a five-stage pipeline.

Among its many advanced features, for the era, NuBus used a 32-bit backplane when 8-or 16-bit busses were common.

There are also other features, such as 16-bit addressing.

Early versions of Internet Explorer ( up to Version 5 ) were also Win32s compatible, although these also existed in 16-bit format. Generally, for a 32-bit application to be compatible with Win32s, it had to not use more than 16MB of memory or any extended features such as DirectX.

Though at that time few games supported large textures and 32-bit color, and those that did generally were too demanding to be run at playable framerates, the features " 32-bit color support " and " 2048x2048 textures " were much more impressive on paper than 16-bit color and 256x256 texture support.

Broadly speaking, software that runs on the Apple IIGS can be divided into two major categories: 8-bit software compatible with earlier Apple II systems such as the IIe and IIc, and 16-bit IIGS software, most of which runs under the Apple IIGS System Software and takes advantage of its advanced features, including a near clone of the Macintosh graphical user interface.

Another advantage of GS / OS over ProDOS 16 was that it was written in 16-bit code for the 65816 processor used in the II, rather than primarily in 8-bit 6502 machine code that did not take advantage of the II's unique features.

Many of the features that were built into 16-bit ViRC were handled by the default script in ViRC ' 96.

Even further, " AT-class " became a term describing any machine which supported the BIOS functions, 16-bit expansion slots, keyboard interface, and other defining technical features of the IBM PC AT ; in the case of the expansion slots, the term is largely synonymous with " ISA " ( when the latter is not applied as a retronym to XT-class machines, as in the phrase " 8-bit ISA slot ".

The last version, called OctaMED Soundstudio, had features like MIDI file support, ARexx support, support for 16-bit and stereo samples, hard disk recording, and support for up to 64 channels.

It evolved to include several new features, which were previously unseen at the time shortly after the release of the original Doom source code, such as translucency, high resolution, and 16-bit color rendering.

The company's heyday was in the early 1990s when the VFX synthesizers offered innovative performance and sequencing features ( and terrific acoustic sounds ), along with the ASR series of 16-bit samplers which also integrated synthesis, effects and sequencer into a single-unit digital studio.

Pac-Land features parallax scrolling for some of the background elements, a feature that would not become commonplace until the 16-bit console era began much later.

* A microprogrammed 16-bit central processor with floating point hardware, error detection and system integrity checking features.

Each VPU features 32 128-bit registers, 16 16-bit fixed-point registers, four FMAC ( Floating point Multiply-ACcumulate ) units, an FDIV ( Floating point DIVide ) unit and a local data memory.

It does, however, add in a few new features such as a jetpack level and the chance to drive one of the walker robots from later in the 16-bit version.

It features a 16-bit address and an 8-bit data bus.

The 3220 features a 16-bit ( 65, 536 ) color screen, which is an improvement over the 3200's 12-bit ( 4096 ) color screen.

While Super Castlevania IV features the same plot and premise of the first Castlevania on the NES, it also has eleven new stages ( five taking place outside of Dracula's castle ), expanded play control, 16-bit graphics featuring SNES Mode 7, and a soundtrack featuring brand new pieces and remixes based on previous Castlevania music.

Based on the Series 60 platform, the phone is a tri-band business version of the consumer Nokia 7610, and features a 1. 0 megapixel digital camera, 8MB of storage ( as well as RS-MMC expansion slot ) and a 65, 536 colour 176x208 TFT screen.

The phone features a 176 x 208, 262, 144 colours TFT LCD display and dedicated music functionality buttons ( XpressMusic ) that slide down to reveal traditional mobile phone keys.

The new interior features redesigned gauges with blackout meters that feature three-dimensional dials, a 3. 5 inch super-twisted nematic ( STN ) monochrome and 4. 1-inch thin-film transistor ( TFT ) colour Multi Information Display ( MID ), ( positioned at the top of the instrument panel ), Bluetooth compatibility, and a Blind Spot Monitoring System.

Lithe and muscular, he had well-molded features, and his light color told of the European ancestors who had been intimate with the slave women of his family.

The Atari Lynx has several innovative features including it being the first color handheld, with a backlit display, a switchable right-handed / left-handed ( upside down ) configuration, and the ability to network with up to 17 other units via its " ComLynx " system ( though most games would network eight or fewer players ).

In the visual system, for example, sensory signals from the eyes are transmitted to the thalamus and then to the primary visual cortex ; inside the cerebral cortex they are sent to areas that extract features such as three-dimensional structure, shape, color, and motion.

A search of historical observations revealed that the spots were probably the most prominent transient features ever seen on the planet, and that while the Great Red Spot is notable for its striking color, no spots of the size and darkness of those caused by the SL9 impacts have ever been recorded before.

A yarn's usefulness is judged by several factors, such as its loft ( its ability to trap air ), its resilience ( elasticity under tension ), its washability and colorfastness, its hand ( its feel, particularly softness vs. scratchiness ), its durability against abrasion, its resistance to pilling, its hairiness ( fuzziness ), its tendency to twist or untwist, its overall weight and drape, its blocking and felting qualities, its comfort ( breathability, moisture absorption, wicking properties ) and its appearance, which includes its color, sheen, smoothness and ornamental features.

The medal is gold in color and on the obverse it features a medium blue enameled pentagon ( point up ).

Notable features that distinguish the gray whale from other mysticetes include its baleen that is variously described as cream, off-white, or blond in color and is unusually short.

It features a color screen and is slightly thicker and taller than the Game Boy Pocket.

JNG enhances the capabilities of the JFIF format ( the usual JPEG file format ), by supporting transparency, two consecutive color streams ( one 8 bit and the other 12 bit ), and other useful PNG features like color correction, gamma correction, embedded color profiles, PNG style metadata, checksums, etc.

A yarn's usefulness for a knitting project is judged by several factors, such as its loft ( its ability to trap air ), its resilience ( elasticity under tension ), its washability and colorfastness, its hand ( its feel, particularly softness vs. scratchiness ), its durability against abrasion, its resistance to pilling, its hairiness ( fuzziness ), its tendency to twist or untwist, its overall weight and drape, its blocking and felting qualities, its comfort ( breathability, moisture absorption, wicking properties ) and of course its look, which includes its color, sheen, smoothness and ornamental features.

In addition, there were scores of musical features released with color sequences.

To illustrate, she notes evolution selects for the gene for features such as eye color ; it does not select for the individual nucleotide in a strand of DNA.

From then on the features and contributions started to grow, including a templating system, color diffs, rewrites of the rendering engine and much more.

For several years, new PowerBook and PowerBook Duo computers were introduced which featured incremental improvements, including color screens, but by mid-decade, most other companies had copied the majority of the PowerBook's features, and Apple was unable to regain their lead.

In 2001, the European Union explicitly banned racism, along with many other forms of social discrimination, in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the legal effect of which, if any, would necessarily be limited to Institutions of the European Union: " Article 21 of the charter prohibits discrimination on any ground such as race, color, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, disability, age or sexual orientation and also discrimination on the grounds of nationality.

It is demonstrated that race has no biological or genetic basis: gross morphological features which traditionally has been defined as races ( e. g. skin color ) are determined by non-significant and superficial genetic alleles with no link to any characteristics, such as intelligence, talent, athletic ability, etc.

Wright argued that it does not require a trained anthropologist to classify an array of Englishmen, West Africans, and Chinese with 100 % accuracy by features, skin color, and type of hair despite so much variability within each of these groups that every individual can easily be distinguished from every other.

All images produced by STM are grayscale, with color optionally added in post-processing in order to visually emphasize important features.

The extra features are integrated memory, PCMCIA, and color LCD controllers connected to an on-die system bus, and five serial I / O channels that are connected to a peripheral bus attached to the system bus.

The deck consists of 81 cards varying in four features: number ( one, two, or three ); symbol ( diamond, tilde, oval ); shading ( solid, striped, or open ); and color ( red, green, or purple ).

His latest book, Charles Darwin: The Concise Story of an Extraordinary Man, was published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2009 and features 60 b / w illustrations and 16 color plates.

The concept of wild type is useful in some experimental organisms such as fruit flies Drosophila melanogaster, in which the standard phenotypes for features such as eye color or shape and wing form are known to be altered by particular gene mutations that produce distinctive phenotypes, such as " apricot " " bar eyes " or " vestigial wings ".
