On Chip Decoding
• Alternative of switch selection
• Uses a decoder
• n number of input lines 2n number of output lines
5
Q. What is the value
at address 101?
A. 1001
6
Three-state ROM
• Uses three-state switch with ROM
• The output is passed to the data lines if ENABLE = 1
7
Homework
• Desing a three-state/tri-state ROM by showing on-chip decoding for
the following memory contents
9
Access Time
• The time required to read a stored word after applying address bits
• Bipolar transistors are faster than MOSFETs
• Hence, Bipolar memories are faster
