Everything about Memory management unit
Hardware that translates virtual addresses to physical addresses
A memory management unit (MMU), sometimes called paged memory management unit (PMMU), is a computer hardware unit that examines all references to memory, and translates the memory addresses being referenced, known as virtual memory addresses, into physical addresses in main memory. Wikipedia →
