ABSTRACT:
A fully associative cache memory for virtual addressing comprises a data RAM (50), a first CAM cell array (51) for holding virtual page addresses which each require address translation to identify a physical page in a main memory, a second CAM cell array (52) holding line or word in page addresses which remain the same for virtual and physical addresses, a physical address memory (53) for holding physical page addresses for the main memory corresponding to virtual page addresses in said first array (51), said first array (51) being connected both to said physical address memory (52) to access said physical address memory in response to a hit output from said first CAM cell array and to control circuitry (57) coupled between said first and second arrays (51,52) and the data RAM (50) to access the data RAM (50) in response to hit outputs from both said first and second CAM cell arrays (51,52).
