D.3) Byte and word addressing.
a) How many bits does a processor need internally to address a 32M x 32 memory
if the memory is word addressable?
b) How many bits does a processor need internally to address a 32M x 32 memory
if the memory is byte addressable?
c) At what physical word address would we find the word at processor address
0x0003FC if the memory is word addressable?
d) At what physical word address would we find the word at processor address
0x0003FC if the memory is byte addressable?
e) If the memory is byte addressable, what is the physical word address for
the word that contains the byte at processor address 0x79E423?
f) If the memory is byte addressable, what is the processor word address for
the word that contains the byte at processor address 0x79E423.
In the processor word address the offset i.e. is the last two LSBs are always
zero, representing the offset 00. So, changing the LSBs to 00 in the binary
representation of 0x79E423
