Electrical Engineering

Below are listed parameters for different direct-mapped cachedesigns.

Cache Data Size: 32 KiB

Cache Block Size: 2 words

Cache Access Time: 1 cycle

Word: 4 bytes.

Calculate the total number of bits required for the cache listedabove, assuming a 32-bit address. Given that total size, find thetotal size of the closest direct-mapped cache with 16-word blocksof equal size or greater.
