Introduction to Memory Organization In 80386 Microprocessor , the physical memory is organized as a sequence bytes. A unique address range is in between zero to a maximum of 2^32-1 as shown in the following figure . 2^32-1 0 1 2 . . . . . This can totally map 2^32 means 4 gigabytes physical address space.

80386 Programs The 80386 programmer require no knowledge of this physical address space. He/she can develop the 80386 programs without knowing how much physical memory is available, exactly where the 80386 program is located in the over all address space. need can be written without knowledge of how much So the 80386 programs are independent of physical address space.

Model of memory organisation System Software designers provides the model of memory organisation for the applications programmers. Depending on the task, different models of memory organisation can be selected. There are two end types of the model of memory organization. Flat Model Segmented Model International Institute of Information Technology, I IT, P-14 Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park, Phase I MIDC, Hinjawadi, Pune - 411 057 Tel +91 20 22933441 | Website - www.isquareit.edu.in | Email - info@isquareit.edu.in
Flat Model Organised as single array of 2^32 bytes ( 4 gigabytes) Much smaller An ordinal pointer value is from 0 to 232-1 to cover flat address space Systems software like linkers, locators, binders, loaders relocation of separately-compiled modules International Institute of Information Technology, I IT, P-14 Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park, Phase I MIDC, Hinjawadi, Pune - 411 057 Tel +91 20 22933441 | Website - www.isquareit.edu.in | Email - info@isquareit.edu.in
Segmented Model The logical address space of 246 bytes (64 terabytes) is mapped onto the physical address space (up to 4 gigabytes). A segment is a unit of contiguous address space. Segment sizes may range from one byte up to a maximum of 232 bytes (4 gigabytes).

Segmented Model A pointer in this address space has two parts as shown in the following figure.

Segmented Model 1. A segment selector is a 16-bit field. 2. It is the identifier of the segment. 3. An offset is a 32-bit ordinal number. 4. It maps to the byte in the selected segment.

Conclusion Memory protection is provided by both the models. Depending of the task, designer can choose the required model.
