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.
