Cache size 32 KB
Block size = 32 Bytes
Address size = 28 bit.
Associativity of Cache = 16
Determine what is the hardware requirement to design the 16-way set associative cache.
Hardware requirement -> Mux, Comparator, Demux, Decoder, Encoder etc.
My answer:- Our requirement are as follow:-
1) 64 Comparator each of size 4 bit.
2) 1 Decoder Dimension -> 6 X 64
3) 1 Mux Dimension -> 32 X 1 where number of select lines are 5.
4) 64 And gates
5) 1 OR gate input line = 64
Someone, please verify these attributes??
