Memory Organization
This chapter discusses:
hardware and its relationship to your program
memory and its components
This chapter provides detailed concepts of the memory’s organization and
its structure. Understanding these concepts aids you in programming
your processor.
Before we explain memory organization and its structure, read the
following definitions:
Bit - the smallest unit of information that memory is capable of retaining
Byte - a group of 8 consecutive bits (00-07
08
or 10-17
08
)
Word - a group of 16 consecutive bits (00-17
08
)
