The virtual address generated by a CPU is 32 bits. The Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) can hold total 64 page table entries and a 4-way set associative (i.e. with 4- cache lines in the set). The page size is 4 KB. The minimum size of TLB tag is (A) 12 bits (B) 15 bits (C) 16 bits (D) 20 bits

Description : The virtual address generated by a CPU is 32 bits. The Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) can hold total 64 page table entries and a 4-way set associative (i.e. with 4- cache lines in the set). The page size is 4 KB. The minimum size of TLB tag is (A) 12 bits (B) 15 bits (C) 16 bits (D) 20 bits

Last Answer : (C) 16 bits Explanation: VirtualAddress = 32 bits PageSize = 4KB = 12 bits therefore : VPNTag = 20 bits, OffsetTag = 12 bits TLBEntryLength = VPNTag = 20 bits TotalTLBEntries = 64, 4-way implies ... therefore : TLBIndex = 4 bits TLBTag = TLBEntryLength - TLBIndex = 20 - 4 = 16 bits
