Memory access time is corresponding to the time interval between the read/write request and the availability of the data.
cycle time representing the minimum time interval between two successive accesses
it is defined by access time and cycle time
The time required by a processor to access data or to write data from and to memory chip is referred as access time.
The time required by a processor to access data or to write data from and to memory chip is referred as access time.
Because of different in speeds of cpu the system bus and the memory circut
memory access time.
cache memory
Memory access time can be calculated using the formula: Memory Access Time = Hit Time + (Miss Rate × Miss Penalty). Here, the hit time is the time taken to access data from cache when it is found, while the miss rate is the frequency of cache misses. The miss penalty is the time required to retrieve data from the main memory when it is not available in the cache. By combining these factors, you can estimate the overall memory access time.
The formula to calculate the average memory access time in a computer system is: Average Memory Access Time Hit Time Miss Rate x Miss Penalty
access times from memory is 200,000 times faster than access times from storage devices due to the mechanical movement involved.
Memory device operating speed is measured in cycle time which is the amount of time required for memory to perform read and write operation and return to its original state ready for next operaiton. Access time is another measure of memory speed which is only the time required for read operation or it is the time between data receiving (read operation) and the data becoming available at the memory output.
Register to register addressing mode is faster because you don't have to do an extra memory access cycle or more.Register to register addressing mode is faster because:Registers are part of and are directly accessibility by the CPU assembly.They electronics that make up a register use more expensive but faster circuitry.Since it does not require memory access, the steps and time involved in memory address decoding and memory access are skipped.
