What will be the starting address of memory chip, given that memory address of last location of an 1K byte memory chip is FBFFH?
-
- F800 H
- FA00H
- EB00H
- EBFFH
Correct Option: A
1 K byte = 1024 memory location. (i.e., from 0 – 1023)
Now, binary representation of decimal 1023 in 16-bit format is 0000 0011 1111 1111
Given last location = FBFFH
So, starting address
FBFFH = 1111 1011 1111 1111
–1 K byte = 0000 0011 1111 1111
1111 1000 0000 0000
Therefore, starting address is F800H.
