The FM-11 was announced as a higher-end model of the [FM-8](/museum/fujitsu-fm-8/) in November 1982, simultaneously with the mass market [FM-7 machine](/museum/fujitsu-fm-7/). The FM-11 series was intended to be used in offices. FM stands for "Fujitsu Micro". The FM-11AD was released as the same time as the [FM-11EX](/museum/fujitsu-fm-11-ex/) and FM-11ST. The FM-11ST is a cut-down version of the FM-11AD: F-Basic built-in ROM and no floppy disk drives on standard model.

Japanese characters can be displayed within a 16 x 16 pixels matrix. Chinese characters (JIS level 1 kanji) ROM available as an option offers: JIS level 1 2965 characters, JIS non-kanji 453 characters.

The FM-11AD later evolved into [FM-11AD2](/museum/fujitsu-fm-11-pub-2/) and **FM-11AD2+**. Based on a Motorola 6809 processor it became quite popular in Japan as a Flex (operating system available for the 6809 based computers) system.
