A computer system has a word addressable memory each word


1. A computer system has a word addressable memory. Each word is 32 bits (4 bytes) wide, and sytem uses 24-bit addressing. How many memory locations can be addressed?
a. 32
b. 24k
c. 16M
d. 24M
e. 32G

2. How many data lines are required for the system in the previous question?
a. 8
b. 16
c. 24
d. 26
e. 32

3. If the system in the previous questions were instead byte-addressable, and were to retain the same number of bytes of memory, how many address lines would it require?
a. 8
b. 16
c. 24
d. 26
e. 32

4. Given a memory that is addressed by 22 bits and is 6-bit addressable, how many bits of storage does the memory contain?
a. 132 bits
b. 64 x 22 = 1408 bits
c. 12 Mbits
d. 24 Mbits
e. 64 Mbits
