If we use 4 bits to encode a single address, we can calculate the number of unique addresses that can be created using the formula \(2^n\), where \(n\) is the number of bits.
In this case, \(n = 4\):
\[
2^4 = 16
\]
So, with 4 bits, you can support 16 unique addresses.
Thus, the answer is **16**.
In this case, \(n = 4\):
\[
2^4 = 16
\]
So, with 4 bits, you can support 16 unique addresses.
Thus, the answer is **16**.
