     <storage> (AS) One of the input signals of a memory device,
     especially semiconductor memory, which is asserted to tell
     the memory device that the address inputs are valid.  Upon
     receiving this signal the selected memory device starts the
     memory access (read/write) indicated by its other inputs.
  
     It may be driven directly by the processor or by a memory controller
     .
