Abstract:
A data store has a data array for storing data values and a tag array for storing tag values for tracking which data values are stored in the data array. The associativity of the data array is greater than the associativity of the tag array. This means that fewer tag entries need to be accessed on each data access than in a conventional data store, reducing power consumption.
