The Jupiter uses a Analog Devices 16 bit processor. The following is from 
AD's site:

16-bit, 40 MIPS, 5v, 2 Serial Ports, Host Port, 80 KB RAM

General Description

The ADSP-2181 is a single-chip microcomputer optimized for digital signal 
processing (DSP) and other high speed numeric processing applications. ADI 
recently disclosed plans for a new ADSP-219x series. With speeds beyond 
300MIPS, this new series is ADSP-218x code-compatible.

The ADSP-2181 combines the ADSP-2100 family base architecture (three 
computational units, data address generators and a program sequencer) with 
two serial ports, a 16-bit internal DMA port, a byte DMA port, a 
programmable timer, Flag I/O, extensive interrupt capabilities, and on-chip 
program and data memory.

The ADSP-2181 integrates 80K bytes of on-chip memory configured as 16K 
words (24-bit) of program RAM, and 16K words (16-bit) of data RAM. 
Power-down circuitry is also provided to meet the low power needs of 
battery operated portable equipment. The ADSP-2181 is available in 128-pin 
TQFP and 128- pin PQFP packages
