"N bit processor" means that the processor can process (eg: add or subtract) only n bits in one cycle

  • It has no relation with width of address bus or data bus.
  • address bus determines the amount of memory that a system can address
  • data bus determines the amount of data can be transferred in one cycle. Mostly data bus width is designed same as processor register length; but not always.
