Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The Memory Address Register (MAR) is located in RAM.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -MAR, which is found inside the CPU, goes either to the RAM (random-access memory) or cache. The MAR register is half of a minimal interface between a microprogram and computer storage; the other half is a MDR.

Detailed explanation-2: -A memory address is a unique identifier used by a device or CPU for data tracking. This binary address is defined by an ordered and finite sequence allowing the CPU to track the location of each memory byte.

Detailed explanation-3: -The memory address register is used to handle the address transferred to the memory unit, and this can be handled either using a bus approach (which we have used in this architecture) or direct input declaration for the memory.

Detailed explanation-4: -In computing, a memory address is a reference to a specific memory location used at various levels by software and hardware. Memory addresses are fixed-length sequences of digits conventionally displayed and manipulated as unsigned integers.
