Cache memory capable of adjusting burst length of write-back data in write-back operation

摘要

A cache memory includes a write-back determination unit and a burst length determination unit. The write-back determination unit determines whether a block is a write-back block based on an n-bit dirty value of the block. The burst length determination unit determines a burst length of write-back data included in the write-back block based on the n-bit dirty value and an minimum burst length, when the block is the write-back block.
