What is the maximum number of memory locations an 8-bit address bus can address?
Think about 2 raised to the power of the number of bits.

Think of the powers of 2.
True or False: 1 megabyte equals 1000 kilobytes.
Differentiate between binary and metric systems.
Calculate the required address bus size to accommodate 8 GB of memory if each addressable memory location holds 2 bytes.
Use the formula 2^(address bus size) to determine the required value.
Design a simple system with 256KB of memory. What address bus size is required, and consider byte vs word addressing?
