John Dorans D16/M minicomputer

The D16/M is a general-purpose, stored-program, single-address, 16-bit digital computer using two's complement arithmetic.  It manages subroutine calls and interrupts using a memory stack. The processor may directly address 64K words of memory or I/O.  Its timing and control unit is microprogrammed (fully horizontal, with a 72-bit control word).

  • Programming wizard Loren wrote a software emulator for the D16/M, and then used it to develop some applications--a keyboard monitor and a tough chess-playing program--even before I [John Doran] managed to get the hardware completed!  Loren has placed all of his work on this site.
