How many Cycles are needed to transfer a block of 32 bytes?

90 Views Asked by At

The question is:

A wide bus configuration has the following parameters:

  • Number of cycles to send the address
  • Number of cycles for a bus transfer = 2 cycles
  • Memory Access = 30 cycles

How many cycles are need to transfer a block of 32 bytes?

So, since it's a wide bus configuration I assumed that the bus transfer cycle will be done over one iteration and same for memory access

Which means that I got 30 + 2 cycles = 32

However I can't make sense of the size of the bus and its impact. I can't understand how i can calculate the the number of cycles left from it
