Subject: Re: Virtual vs Physical memory (was Re: Designing around a 6502 )
:-) Good Answer
This has been argued many times. Personally, I would go with the width of
the accumulator(s), 8 bits for 6809, even though there are special (or
perhaps BECAUSE they are special) instructions that use the combination of
the two accumulators as one 16 bit ("D") register.

PS Is the 6809
a 8 or a 16 bit CPU?
Yes.
