It is the architecture of the underlying CPU which determines if it is 8 bit, 16 bit or so on.. A 8 bit CPU means, it will have 8 parallel conducting wires running from its registers (which can store 8 bit of data at any point of time) to the main memory (RAM, which is a block or stack of 8 bit locations).
