Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You need to design a memory system that utilizes 1 KB modules to create a 12 KB arrangement. Describe how you would achieve this and the implications on address bus width.
💡 Hint: Think how many chips you need and how many bits to address them.
Given a utility that requires access to a range of memory addresses from 0000 to 0100, explain the logic behind the selection of chip enable signals and how the address bus coordinates this.
💡 Hint: Consider the address layering aspect in modular setups.
