What is an accumulator?

What does the address bus do?
Think of how the CPU tells memory which data to access.
True or False: The memory buffer register is used to store data during both read and write operations.
Consider its role in data transportation.
Design a simple memory organization strategy for a hypothetical CPU that needs to handle 16-bit wide instructions. Discuss the memory bus structure and address organization needed.
Consider how data flows between the CPU and memory.
Evaluate the impact of reducing the size of memory addresses from 12 bits to 10 bits in a memory organization. What implications does this have for memory access efficiency?
Think about what it means for the range of memory addresses.
