Thank you!!

Q)find the number of unique address accessed by a 16-bit microprocessor. if the width of the data is also 8 bits, determine the word size in bytes.

Answer: -The number of unique address accessed by a 16-bit microprocessor is: 65,536 bytes.

Explanation:- we know that 2 power 16 (2^16) is 65,536 So processor with 16-bit memory addresses can uniquly access 64 KB aka 65,536 bytes.

We know that 8 bits, can transfer 1 byte of data per read/write operation.

So the Word size will be 8 bytes.
