What is another way to refer to 1 byte or 8?
1 byte = 8 bits, but that doesn't matter, a byte is the smallest amount a computer can access.
What is a set of 8 bits for a computer?
This is typically called a byte, the term was defined this way by IBM for their System 360 series of computers.However IBM first defined the byte as a variable number of bits from 1 to 16 for their 7030 Stretch computer, but by the time the design of the 7030 Stretch was finished this was reduced to a variable number of bits from 1 to 8.
How much storage space does a byte have?
8 bits = 1 byte. thats an awful answer! HERE IS ANOTHER ANSWER; HOPE THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR! If you mean ASCII characters then 8 bits can store one ASCII character (may also depend on processor, prog language, etc), for example, the decimal value for A is 65 in ASCII which equates to 01000001 in binary where each 0 or 1 is represented by a single bit
What is bits?
Bits are way measuring data. Eight bits equal one byte. One thousand bytes equal one kilobyte. One thousand kilobytes equal one megabyte and so on.
What is a functional of CPU?
The function of the CPU (Centeral Processing Unit) is to perform operations which make your computer run. At one point or another, EVERY bit (8 bits = 1 byte) of data goes through the CPU and is processed in some way. Its a trololololololtrololololololol
What is measuring unit of speed of modem?
"Bits per second" (BPS) is also called "baud". It means the number of individual "on/off" pieces of information. Eight "bits" are put together to make a "byte", which can be used to represent an asciii character. Internally, multiple bits are assembled in an organized way to represent EVERYTHING in your computer from pictures to text files or even applications.
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 characters is one byte?
Long long time ago a character was only one byte. Now (unicode) a character is 2 or 4 bytes, but usually we use a variable-length encoding called utf-8.
16 megabits equals how many megabytes?
A "megabit" is a short way to say megabits per second, or how many millions of bits can be sent or received in a second for an electronic connection. A megabyte is a unit that measures the size of files or the capacities of storage media. One megabyte equals 1048576 bytes, or 8388608 bits. These terms describe two different things and have no relation.Ans. 2The first answer is incorrect in several ways. It has not been blanked because contrasting right with wrong is sometimes the best way of making things clear.A bit is a short way to say one binary digit.A megabit is a short way to say 220 bits.mbps is a short way to say megabits per second.mBps is a short way to say megabytes per scondA byte is a number of bits treated together as a block or group. In the early days of computing a byte size could be whatever the designer wanted. (I once worked on a computer which had 6-bit bytes and 8-bit bytes at the same time ! Not designed by me.) Today a byte has settled at the 8-bit level.To convert bits to bytes simply divide by the byte size.Assuming we are not talking ancient history, 16 megabits is 2 megabytes.The reason for specifying transfer rates in mbps rather than mBps is that it immediately shows the rate at which information is transferred and at the same time removes the necessity for specifying byte lengths.
What is another way of saying nonagon?
You may refer to it as a nine-sided polygon.
What does ecc mean?
ECC stands for "error correcting code". It is a way to check for accuracy by adding one bit of redundant data (or parity data) to the end of each byte. As an example, when the digits of a byte total an odd number, the parity bit will be a zero. When it is even, it will be a one. If the parity bits do not match their respective bytes, the data is known to be corrupted.
What is a nano byte in maths?
A billionth of a byte. However, since a byte is the number of binary digits used to encode a single character, I do not see how it is possible to have a billionth of a byte - unless you have developed something way more advanced than quantum computers.
