1×16

1×16 denotes a dimensional descriptor used in mathematics, geometry, and data representation to indicate a rectangle with one unit in one dimension and sixteen units in the other, i.e., a 1-by-16 rectangle.

In arithmetic, 1×16 equals 16. The expression reflects the multiplicative identity property: any number multiplied by 1 remains unchanged.

Geometrically, the area of a 1-by-16 rectangle is 16 square units, and its perimeter is 2(1+16) = 34 units.

In computing and data representation, 1×16 describes the dimensions of a matrix or array: a 1×16 matrix has one row and sixteen columns; a 1×16 bit word or register stores 16 bits, equivalent to two bytes. Such width is common for simple data paths, memory words, or data transfer buses.

Contextual uses include electronics, display modules, and hardware schematics where a single strip or row of sixteen units is specified. The term is versatile and appears across disciplines to convey a uniform, linear dimension of sixteen units in a single row or a single line.
