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".

Japanese characters can be displayed within a 16 x 16 pixels matrix.

Several FM-11 models were marketed:\
\- FM-11 EX (1982): 6809 & 8088 microprocessors\
\- [FM-11 AD](/museum/fujitsu-fm-11-pub/) (1982): 6809 micromprocessor only\
\- FM-11 ST (1982): economic version of the AD, with FDD as an option. Built-in ROM Basic.\
\- [FM-11 BS](/museum/fujitsu-fm-11-bs/) (1984): 8088 microprocessor only\
\- [FM-11 AD2](/museum/fujitsu-fm-11-pub-2/) (1984): OS-9 operating system\
\- FM-11 AD2+ (1985): enhanced AD2 (256 KB RAM)

Only the "ST" model has built-in ROM Basic.
