Memory-2 is a region of the 5A22's address space. Memory-2 is a total of 6 megabytes (exactly 6,291,456 bytes) in size, spread across:

  • the upper half (8000h - FFFFh) of banks 80h - BFh, which is exactly 2,097,152 bytes (2 megabytes spread across 64 banks), and
  • all of banks C0h - FFh, which is exactly 4,194,304 bytes (4 megabytes spread across 64 banks)

Thus, when labeled on a memory map, Memory 2 forms a concave region; see the bottom of Figure 2-21-1 of the official Super Nintendo development manual.
