What is the data found in the cache is called?
The data found in the cache is called cache data. It typically consists of recently accessed or frequently used instructions or data that are stored in a smaller and faster memory area for quicker access by the processor.
What is cache latency?
delay to access the data in cache in context of processor's speed. Time to access the requested data in cache , at that time processor have to wait .. is called cache latency.
What is the objective of cache only memory architecture?
Cache memory is the high speed memories which are repeatedly requested by the Cache client (CPU). Whenever the requested data from the cpu is present in the cache, it directly supply the data and is known as cache hit(fast) and when the data is not accessible in cache then cache access the block of the main memory and feed to the CPU and it is termed as cache miss (slow).
What is stored in cache memory?
The data that are frequently used goes in the cache memory...
What does the memory in the CPU?
it stores the data like input data, intermediate data,output data and many other types of data
What happens if the process cannot access data from cache?
It means you have to fix your cache which is causing the data to not intake information
How does cache work?
Cache memory is a place for the CPU to store important data but still have quick access to it. The cache acts as a middleman, providing data to the CPU at full speed while it is obtaining data from the SDRAM.
What is the size of L1 and L2 cache?
Usually the size of the L2 cache will be larger than the L1 cache so that if data hit in L 1 cache occurs, it can look for it in L 2 cache.. If data is not in both of the caches, then it goes to the main memory...
Is cache memory a removable memory?
No, a cache memory is often used to store data that has been needed recently on grounds that it will be faster to access when/if it is needed again. When data that is requested is contained in the cache you have a cache hit, and when you have to retrieve it from the hard drive (or where ever its original storage was) again it is called a cache miss. Retrieving data from the hard drive is slower than retrieving it from the cache.
What type of data is stored in cache memory?
Cache memory normally stored instructions and data that the processor likely to use frequently.
What is internal cache information?
A cache is a data store, thus "internal cache information" is metadata relating to a data storage facility that is used solely by a system. That is, a data store that is not intended for user consumption (internal use only).
Which type of CPU cache has the highest latency?
The Level 3 (L3) cache has the highest latency. The CPU cache is memory that is used to decrease the time that it takes the CPU to access data. Because the data is cached, it can be accessed more quickly. The CPU cache is often found directly on the CPU or built into the CPU. The L3 cache is usually larger than the L1 and L2 cache, but it is searched last. The CPU searches for data in the following order: L1 cache, L2 cache, L3 cache, RAM.
