Memory Design

For **32K X 16**, we calculate the required address lines and data lines as follows: - The total number of addressable locations (32K) corresponds to memory locations. - To find the number of address lines, we use the formula: - The data lines correspond to the word size, which is **16 bits**. Therefore, we need **16 data lines**. Thus, the correct answer is **(1)**: **address lines=14, data lines=16**.
