Question
3.
Calculate the total number of bits required for the cache , assuming we have a 32-bit address.
There are many different design parameters that are important for a cache's overall performance. Below are parameters for various directly mapped cache designs:
- data size: 32 KiB,
- block size: 2 words.
Calculate the total number of bits required for the cache above, assuming we have a 32-bit address. Show how you calculated it!

- A cache designer wishes to enhance the size of a 4 KiB physically labeled, virtually indexed cache. Is it feasible to create a 16 KiB direct-mapped cache with the page size mentioned above, assuming two words per block? How would the designer expand the cache's data size?arrow_forwardA cache is organized as a 4 way set associative cache Each set's cache line consists of 4 words (meaning there are 16 bytes per line, for each set of the cache). Each set individually has one Valid bit, and one Dirty bit, for each line. The tag field of this cache is 8 bits wide. The address is 32 bits wide. Question 1a) What is the number of cache lines? Question 1b) What is the total number of 'memory bitcells' that are needed to design this cache (note, this includes the bitcells required for the tags, valid and dirty bits).arrow_forward
