6.2.2 Cache Memory
Internal Cache
The internal cache memory, also known as L1, is CPU integrated. The L1 memory size
depends on the CPU model:
- 8K, 8K separated data and instructions L1, for Pentium processors
- 16K, 16K separated data and instructions L1, for Pentium MMX processors
- 32K, 32K separated data and instructions L1, for K6 processors
External Cache
The external cache memory, also known as L2 cache, is implemented with 512KB
Synchronous Pipelined SRAM. This feature enhances the operation of the circuit by
eliminating wait states on cache accesses.
