= Memory Map =
A memory map is how the processor sees the world. When you design a system with a microcontroller, it uses address lines to control where it reads data from. Some of these addresses are internal to the chip, others go to the outside world.
There are a bunch of chips connected to the processor (peripherals) that can do all kinds of different things. Some are memories, some convert an analog voltage like a MAP sensor into a digital value that the processor can use.

There is an excellent general summary of the
P4 memory map on Ludis' site.
