Best Answer

If you are addressing bytes, then 512K words (16 bit words) requires 20 address lines.

I gave that answer because the question was categorized 8086/8088. If you are addressing words, then the answer is 19 address lines.

MB = Mega Bytes = 2^20

512 Locations = 2^9

So, total memory location are 2^(20+9) = 2^29

So, total number of address lines are 29.

ANSWER There are 2128 combinations of addresses. This is about 3.4 x 1038 locations. Assuming each address holds a 32-bit word, that's 1.2 x 1039 bytes. That's a LOT of memory.
