===12-bit designs===
The [[Intersil 6100]] family consisted of a [[12-bit]] microprocessor (the 6100) and a range of peripheral support and memory ICs. The microprocessor recognised the DEC [[PDP-8]] [[minicomputer]] instruction set. As such it was sometimes referred to as the '''CMOS-PDP8'''. Since it was also produced by Harris Corporation, it was also known as the '''Harris HM-6100'''. By virtue of its CMOS technology and associated benefits, the 6100 was being incorporated into some military designs until the early 1980s.
