mention another specific 1-bit architecture. |

Line 42:
Other examples of 1-bit architectures are [[programmable logic controller]]s (PLCs), programmed in [[instruction list]] (IL).
Such as the 1969 [[PDP-14]].<ref name=CHD>

Several early [[massively parallel]] computers used 1-bit architectures for the processors as well. Examples include the May 1983 [[Goodyear MPP]] and the 1985 [[Connection Machine]]. By using a 1-bit architecture for the individual processors a very large array (e.g. the Connection Machine had 65,536 processors) could be constructed with the chip technology available at the time. In this case the slow computation of a 1-bit processor was traded off against the large number of processors.
