(uses bits to represent an address). 1023 in binary 11 1111 1111ethakota memory address field kiyana ekata bits 10k one(to store the highest address). Memory eke thiyana words or bytes gana anuwa thamai memory address field eke size eka depend wenne.Register kiyanne nam very fast memory location ekak.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Simple english versionMemory address field is used to select a memory location(word or byte) in the memory.Memory address field must be able to address all the memory locations in the memory.Therefore size of the memory address field depends on the memory(no. of memory locations).Memory address field in the above example has 2 bytes to store the memory address, but only uses 10 bits.ex - 0000 0011 1101 0100Hope this helps.</blockquote>
