Hardware Questions

the processing speed depends on DATA BUS WIDTH.

Maximum of 24 logical drives. The extended partition can only have 23 logical drives.

Stack pointer and Program counter all have 16 bits.

Because 8085 processor is 8 bit ALU (arithmetic logic review). Similarly 8086 processor has 16 bit ALU.

The Transmission-Gate's input is connected to the D_LATCH data input (D), the control input to the Transmission-Gate is connected to the D-Latch enable inputs (EN) and the Transmission-Gate outputs is the D_LATCH output(Q)

5 Mhz is the Maximum clock frequency in 8086.

The MESI protocol is also known as illinois protocol due to its development the University of illinois at Urbana-Champaign and MESI is a widely used cache coherency and memory coherence protocol.

MESI is the most common which supports write-back cache. its use in personal computers became widespread with the introduction of intel's pentium processor to "support the more efficient write-back cache in addition to the write-through cache previously used by the Intel 486 processor"/
