Effect of changing the # wires in the data bus
Recall:
Effect of changing the # wires in the data bus
Effect of changing the # wires in the data bus
Effect of changing the # wires in the data bus
- an analogy
One Wire in the
data bus
transfer
one bit of data - like
one lane in
a high way:
More wires in the
data bus allow the
Computer System to
transfer more bits in
one data transfer operation

Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
Recall:
Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
Therefore:
(So a computer with
8 bits address bus can
identify (= have)
maximum
28 RAM memory)
Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
Therefore:
( Computers with
16 bits address bus can
identify (= have)
maximum
216 RAM memory)
Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
Effect of changing the # wires in the address bus
