A 4-bit quantity is called a nibble. If a byte-addressable memory has a 16-bit address, how many nibbles of storage are in this memory?Problem 5 (3 points)The circuit below has a major flaw. Can you identify it? Hint: Evaluate the circuit for all sets of inputs.6Problem 6 (4 points)Fill in the truth table for the following transistor level circuit. Note that two wires with the same name are assumed to be connected to each other.Inputs OutputA B C Z0 0 00 0 10 1 00 1 11 0 01 0 11 1 01 1 17Problem 7 (3 points)The figure below shows a block diagram of the Von Neumann model. List the steps in writing a value x0002 to a location x3010 in the memory. Your steps should mention the MAR and MDR where applicable. 1) ______________________________________________________________2) ______________________________________________________________3) ______________________________________________________________8Problem 8 (4 points)A Vending machine delivers a package of gum after 15 cents are deposited. It has a single coin slot which accepts only dimes (10 cents) or nickels (5 cents). (No other types of coins areaccepted). The vending machine does not return back changes.I. Draw the finite state machine diagram for the vending machine. The machine takes one input every clock cycle which can be N, D or reset. The machine outputs a 1 when it opens to deliver a gum package, otherwise it outputs a 0. II. How many flip-flops (storage elements) will be needed to implement this finite state machine designed in your answer to part I?9Problem 9 (4 points)Circle the correct answer for the following questions:I. Circuit A is a 1-bit adder calculating the sum only and no carry; circuit B is a 1 bit multiplier. Both the circuits are implemented using AND, OR and NOT gates only. a. Circuit A has more gates than circuit B b. Circuit B has more gates than circuit A c. Circuit A has the same number of gates as circuit B (Hint: Construct the truth table for the adder and the multiplier)II. If the number of address bits in a memory is reduced by 2 and the addressability is doubled, the size of the memory (i.e., the number of bits stored in the memory) a. Doublesb. Remains unchangedc.
