How many NIBBLES are in a WORD? For a memory that is 64K X 16. Exactly how many total bits are in the memory? Exactly how many BYTE storage locations are in the memory? How many bits are In each memory location? How many binary address lines are needed to address every location in the memory? What is the binary number of the last location? What is the decimal number for the last memory location? What is the hex number for the last memory location? Is data store

Explanation / Answer

1) READ ONLY MEMORY

2) IF YOUR PROCESSOR IS OF 8 bit THEN ITS WORD SIZE IS 8 bit.

3) RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY

4) FALSE

5) 2

6) 1024

7)It depends on processor. For 8 bit processor 1byte = word,for 16 bit 2 byte=word

8)4

9)2power(20)

10)It depends on processor. For 8 bit processor word=2 nibble ,for 16 bit word= 4 nibble

11) a 1048576

b 131072

c 16

d 16

e 1111.... 16 times

f 65535

g FFFF
