Abstract
The main memory is an essential subsystem in a Von Neumann type of stored
program machine. Because of the speed gap existence between the processor and the
main memor>% there has been a constant need to improve the main memor\' to achieve
a better throughput. One method is to use a CAM(Content Addressable Memorv'). It
is known as a \ery powerful facility for searching a particular item from a data array
rather than from conventional memor\\ Investigated in this thesis are the discussion of
CAM characteristics, timing analysis, CAM controller design and simulation results.
The main results obtained in this thesis are timing characteristics of the CAM system
and design considerations of the CAM controller
