I don't know its origins but just looking at its instruction set, it
seems to come from an earlier era of cpu design than what we usually
deal with today.  Its heritage may have been in industrial automation
rather than computing.  It's not my area but I think PLC's originally
didn't have the features of normal microprocessors, but gradually
acquired them, and now they have normal microprocessors inside.
