If a microprocessor has a cycle time of 0.5 nanoseconds, what’s the processor clock rate? If the fetch cycle is 40% of the processor cycle time, what memory access speed is required to implement load operations with zero wait states and load operations with two wait states?
In the event that an instruction is not accepted, it will write to VA page 30. In circumstances like these, it would be more efficient to employ a TLB that is handled by software rather than one that is maintained by hardware.
