Unités centrales réalisées à partir d'un ensemble de modules élémentaires dont l'originalité réside dans le module unité arithmétique et logique UAL [unité arithmétique et logique]. En effet, plusieurs modules unité arithmétique et logique peuvent être associés en cascade, permettant ainsi de former une longueur de mot quelconque (restant toutefois multiple de la longueur élémentaire).
