Cache memory is a fast memory which act as a buffer memory between the main memory and the processor.It helps to increase the overall speed of the system.The data which are repeatedly used during the processing of information are loaded on to the cache memory so that each time the processor don't have to access the same from the main memory.Due to this the CPU doesn't have to use the mother board's system bus for data transfer.With the help of cache memory we can reduce the problem of bottle neck of the system bus.

What are the type of cache memory?
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
What are the Advantages and disadvantages of cache mapping techniques?
Advantages:1) Faster memory access2) Higher CPU UtilizationDisadvantages:1) Cost Factor2) Cache coherency
What are the two types of cache memory?
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
Cache memory and register memory?
Register memory are smaller in size than cache memory and registers are faster than cache..Cache memory store the frequently used data from main memory..
Is cache memory visible?
No cache memory is not visible.....
What type of RAM is used for cache memory?
sram is used for cache for cache memory.
What is the recommended size of cache memory in a processor?
The maximum size of a cache memory is theoretically equal to the amount of primary memory(RAM).Like Cache only memory architecture where the whole memory space is filled up with the cache only.
Why is cache memory needed?
Cache Memory is needed because Hardware implements cache as a block of memory for temporary storage likely to be used again.
What is the difference between cache-memory and primary-memory?
Cache memory is smaller and quicker, primary memory larger and slower.
What is the difference between cache memory disk cache?
memory cache is on memory RAM, disk Cache is on the hard drive. They make things to get faster. For instance Google Earth use this disk cache to show you offline images.
Can you name the two cache memory?
l1 cache l2 cache
What are the advantages and diadvantages of a buffer cache?
A cache allows one to retrieve commonly used information very quickly (if it is still in the cache) rather than trying to find it on the system (which takes much longer). The disadvantage is that is takes away memory from the system to implement the cache.
