EBCDIC

EBCDIC (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code) is a family of character encodings. EBCDIC was used in a number of old IBM systems in the pre-PC era. The IBM PC, however, used ASCII like most modern computers.

List of encodings
Encodings in bold have official IANA charset aliases (though none has a single preferred IANA charset ID).
