Goals - Memory
- Understand memory cell behavior and how it is different from a register cell.
- Understand static (6-transistor) and dynamic (1-transistor) implementations of memory cell.
- Implement an N by M cell memory array of memory cells. Included an encoded address and bidirectional data bus.
- Describe memory chip organization employing row and column arrays.
- Use memory chips (e.g., 4 Mword by 4 bit) to build larger memory systems. Define total chips, chip array size, decoder required, and address fields.
- Identify chips responsible for storing a specified memory location in a memory system.
- Understand word organization is a memory system including byte and word addressed memory and big versus little endian.
