Offset address is also known as displacement.By adding this offset value to a base address,address of a specific locaction in memory can be accessed
An offset address is a relative address rather than an absolute address. You use offsets to refer to memory relative to an absolute address. For instance, array indices are implemented using offsets from the start address of the array, such that element 0 is at offset 0 and element 5 is at offset 5.
In software Engineering KPA denotes.
Base plus displacement.
your question is wrong. it should be "can physical address and logical address be same" answer is no because logical address is the combination of page number and offset whereas physical address is the combination of physical page[frame] and offset
Pointers to far objects are stored using four bytes (32 bits). The bytes are stored little endian or low to high order. The first word contains the 14-bit memory offset (bits 14 and 15 are always 0). The second word contains the page number (or segment number for function pointers). The memory address is calculated as follows: Variable Address = (Page * 0x4000L) + OffsetFunction Address = (Segment * 0x10000L) + Offset
displacement from base address
The offset is usually the difference between the address of a module and the specific location being referenced.
DI is used as an offset address for string instruction destinations in the microprocessors.
Refers to a value added to a base address to produce a second address. For example, if B represents address 100, then the expression,B+5would signify the address 105. The 5 in the expression is the offset.Specifying addresses using an offset is called relative addressing because the resulting address is relative to some other point. Another word for offset is displacement.Ajesh John
the address that is obtained by applying any specified indexing or indirect addressing rules to specified address
Give the effective address if the segment register is AA03 and the offset register is 0200.
