INTERLEAVED MEMORY and CACHE MAPPING TECHNIQUES

INTERLEAVED MEMORY Combining smaller memory modules into a single, larger memory is known as Interleaved Memory. Memory is typically not implemented as a single huge module (chip) in computer systems.  Instead, it is created by memory interleaving a number of smaller modules together. Higher order and Lower order interleaving are two types of interleaving. HIGHER …

Paging

Paging in COA: Equal-sized blocks known as “Pages” are used to divide the virtual memory area. Equal-sized blocks known as Page Frames (also known as pages) are also used to split the Physical Memory space, also known as Main Memory. Virtual Memory pages are loaded into any free page frame in physical memory. For instance: Take …

addressing modes in 8085

Addressing modes in 8085 Addressing modes in 8085. The way in which an operand is given to an instruction is known as addressing mode. Addressing modes do exist in every processor and microcontroller, however they vary little. There are various types of addressing modes in 8051, and important ones are immediate addressing mode, register addressing mode, direct addressing …
