Question

Calculate the number of memory chips needed to design 128k-byte memory if the memory chips size is 2048*1bits

Answer 1

We know.......1 byte = 8 bits & 1k = 1024 bytes.

•°• 16k bytes = 1024×16×8

•°• Chips required =

$\frac{1024 \times 16 \times 8}{2048 \times 8}$

= 8 ⬅Ans.

Hope this helps you

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of memory chips needed to design 128k-byte memory if the memory chips size is 2048*1bits is 8.

Explanation:

• A memory chip is known as a integrated circuit that is made up of millions of capacitors and transistors and it will store the data or it will be used for the process code.
• The memory chip is holding the memory either the temporarily by using the RAM ( Random Access Memory) and also permanently with ROM         ( Read only memory).

• The memory chips are of four types. They are:

1) RAM

2) ROM

3) CMOS

4) Flash

• Working of the memory chip:

The chip that is basic is called as a cell. It is connected to a circuit that is small with a capacitor that will store the data as charge and one or more transistor is activated with a data.

The capacity of the memory chip is  RAM.

Given that:

The memory chip design is 128 k byte memory.

The memory size is considered as 2048* 1 bits.

To find:

The number of memory chip required =?

Solution:

Let us consider,

1 byte = 8 bits

1 kilobyte =1024 bytes

Now, given

16k byte = 1024 * 16* 8

Let us consider the formula of chip:

Chips that is required = 1024 * 16 * 8 / 2048 * 8

chips that is required = 8

Therefore, the number of memory chip is 8.
