16-bit is a computer hardware device or software program capable of transferring 16 bits of data at a time.

Today, 16-bit hardware and software has been replaced by 32-bit and 64-bit alternatives, which give the computer more memory to work with; increasing overall performance.

For example, early computer processors (e.g., 8088 and 80286) were 16-bit processors, meaning they were capable of working with 16-bit binary numbers (decimal number up to 65,535).

The memory which can be retained even the power is off is called as Permanent memory or Persistent memory. Computer's hard drive is an example of permanent memory and computer's cache or RAM are examples of temporary memory.
