NAND-16: a computer built entirely from NAND gates

Original: NAND-16: a computer built from 277,248 NAND gates

A 16-bit computer called NAND-16 has been built using 277,248 NAND gates as its only logic component. The project demonstrates that a complete working machine can be constructed from a single, simple gate type, echoing classic computing principles. It is drawing attention from engineers and hobbyists debating its design, performance, and the elegance of building complexity from one primitive part.

Why now: Hardware enthusiasts are impressed by the feat of building a full computer from a single gate type.
