Tag RAM access
The following tables show the data formats for tag RAM accesses:
Table 9-36 shows the format for read accesses when neither parity nor ECC is
implemented
Table 9-37 shows the format for read accesses when parity is implemented
Table 9-38 shows the format for read accesses when ECC is implemented
Table 9-39 on page 9-30 shows the format for write accesses when neither parity nor ECC
is implemented
Table 9-40 on page 9-30 shows the format for write accesses when parity is implemented
Table 9-41 on page 9-30 shows the format for write accesses when ECC is implemented.
