Calculate the total number of bits required for the cache listed above, assuming a 32-bit address. given that total size, fi nd the total size of the closest direct-mapped cache with 16-word blocks of equal size or greater. explain why the second cache, despite its larger data size, might provide slower performance than the fi rst cache.

Number of bits in a cache = 2588672 bits

Cache with 16- word block of equal size or greater =4308992

Explanation:

To calculate the number of bits required for the cache containing 32- bit address.

formula to calculate the bits is :

Number of bits in a cache

total bits = = 2588672 bits

Cache with 16- word block of equal size or greater

total bits = =4308992
