<architecture, programming> Using words containing sixteen bits. This adjective often refers to the number of bits used internally by a computer's CPU. E.g. "The Intel 8086 is a sixteen bit processor". Its external data bus or address bus may be narrower. The term may also refer to the size of an instruction in the computer's instruction set or to any other item of data. See also 16-bit application. (1996-05-13)

<operating system> Software for MS-DOS or {Microsoft Windows} which originally ran on the 16-bit Intel 8088 and 80286 microprocessors. These used a {segmented address space} to extend the range of addresses from what is possible with just a 16-bit address. Programs with more than 64 kilobytes of code or data therefore had to waste time switching between segments. Furthermore, programming with segments is more involved than programming in a {flat address space}, giving rise to warts like memory models in C and C++. Compare 32-bit application. (1996-04-06)

16 Bit (Italian band)

ITALIAN ROCK BAND

16 Bit was an Italian rock band founded in the town of Caserta in 2004. The group was founded by Fabio Verzillo, Dario Licciardi, Nando Brunetti, Roberto Celentano, and Antonio De Francesco.

Audio bit depth

In digital audio using pulse-code modulation (PCM), bit depth is the number of bits of information in each sample, and it directly corresponds to the resolution of each sample. Examples of bit depth include Compact Disc Digital Audio, which uses 16 bits per sample, and DVD-Audio and Blu-ray Disc which can support up to 24 bits per sample.

In basic implementations, variations in bit depth primarily affect the noise level from quantization error—thus the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and dynamic range. However, techniques such as dithering, noise shaping, and oversampling can mitigate these effects without changing the bit depth. Bit depth also affects bit rate and file size.

Bit depth is only meaningful in reference to a PCM digital signal. Non-PCM formats, such as lossy compression formats, do not have associated bit depths.

Examples of use of 16 bit

1. When the IPv4 internet was developed in the 1'80s, internet programmers gave each address a "16–bit" number, unaware of how huge the internet would later become.

2. Image quality Color accuracy is among the best we‘ve seen in a digital camera, and overall image quality is wonderful, partly attributable to the D3‘s 14–bit analog–to–digital conversion which feeds into a 16–bit internal processing pipeline.
