3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
How many memory locations can be addressed with an 8-bit address bus?
Think about 2 raised to the power of the address bus size.
What does 1K represent in binary terms?
Recall how binary kilobytes are calculated.
How many bits does an 8-bit address bus provide?
Remember the definition of how address buses work.
True or False: 1 KB in the binary system equals 1,000 bytes.
Think about the differences between binary and metric measurements.
If a new memory module is developed that can handle 8GB total capacity with 32 bits per location, how would the organization of this module affect the size of the address bus?
Use the total size and divide it by the size of information stored to find memory locations.
Given a scenario where the address bus size is increased to 64 bits, estimate how many memory locations this can address. Discuss the implications for modern computing.
Think about the exponential capability of larger addressing schemes.
