Suppose that a 64M X 64 main memory is built using 512K X 8 RAM chips and memory is word addressable, a) How many RAM chips are there per bank? b) How many banks will this memory have? c) How many RAM chips are necessary? d) How many address bits are needed for each RAM chip? e) How many address bits are needed for all of memory (word addressable)? f) How many banks of memory are needed? g) How many bits are needed to address the memory banks. h) If high-order interleaving is used, where would address (0 0000 1011 0000 0000 0101)2 be located (which bank no.)? If low-order interleaving is used, where would address i) (0 0000 1011 0000 0000 0101)2 be located (which bank no.)? If low-order interleaving is used, where would address j) (0 0000 1011 1111 0001 0101)2 be located (which bank no.)?

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

SOLUTION a To determine how many RAM chips there are per bank we need to divide the total memory size 64M by the size of each RAM chip 512K 64M 512K 128 So there are 128 RAM chips per bank b To determ... View the full answer
