Assume that the memory system has 16 address lines denoted by A15 to A0. What is the range of address (in hexadecimal) of the memory system that can get enabled by the chip select (CS) signal?

    A15 A14 A13 A12 A11 A10 A9 ... .... A0
1    1   0   0   1   0   0 ... .... 0  = C800
|-Chip select (CS)-| ...   ... .... 1  = C801
1    1   0   0   1   ...   ... .... .  = ...
1    1   0   0   1   1   1 ... .... 1  = CFFF

    Looks Like Option A is the correct answer.
