Intel386™ EX EMBEDDED MICROPROCESSOR USER’S MANUAL
14-6
Example 2
This example establishes four 4-Kbyte address blocks starting at 0000000H, 0002000H,
0004000H, and 0006000H (4-Kbyte boundaries).
Because the least-significant 0 in the channel’s mask is in bit position 2, this channel’s active ad-
dress block size is 2
2
= 4 Kbytes. Because there are two 1’s to the left of the right-most 0 in the
channel’s mask, the block is repeated 2
2
= 4 times. Also, because there are no 1’s in the channel
mask where there are 1’s in the channel address, the channel address is the starting address of the
lowest active address block. In this example, each active 4-Kbyte address block in memory is fol-
lowed by an inactive 4-Kbyte address block and each active address block starts on a 4-Kbyte
address boundary.
