How many bits of address bus are required to address 1mb memory?

You need 20 bits of address bus to address 1 Mb of memory.


When the low order bits of the address are used to select the memory bank it is?

When the low order bits of the address are used to select the memory bank it is interleaved.


How many address bits would be required for a memory that stores 64 4-bit words?

It requires 6 bits to address 64 words. It does not matter what the word size is.


Why 4 bit address bus is grounded?

The data bus in the 8086 is 16 bits in size, while the address bus is 20 (16bits would only address 64KB of memory, an extra 4 bits allows to address the total of 1MB, this is done trough segmentation of the memory). To form a multiplexed of data bus and address bus, four bits of 8086 address bus are grounded.


What is memory address register of Intel 8085?

How many lines of the address must be used to access 2048 bytes. How many of these lines are connected to the address input of all chips?

That depends on the memory architecture of the system.if the memory chips are byte wide and not used to create a multibyte bus, 11 address bits are needed.if the memory chips are 32 bits wide, 9 address bits are needed (with the CPU internally selecting which of the 4 bytes it will use).it the memory chips are 64 bits wide, 8 address bits are needed (with the CPU internally selecting which of the 8 bytes it will use.if the memory chips are 4 bits wide, 12 address bits will be needed and the CPU must perform 2 memory cycles per byte that it needs. (yes, I have seen a computer that worked this way!)etc.


How many address bits are required in an 8K X 8 memory?

15 bits


Why 8086 requires address bus of 20 bits while using 16 bit address for segement register?

This is due to the fact that 16bits would only address 64KB of memory, which even then was very little. The answer for this was to come up with an extra 4 bits to address the total 1MB, this is done trough segmentation of the memory. Google it.

What is the size of RAM that 8086 can address?

8086 has 20 address lines. Therefore it can address 220 bits or 1,048,576 bits of memory, or roughly 1 MB (mega byte).
