Switches! Lots of them!

we'll actually split into teams and all, so we'll really need the laptops this time around

Aftermath

• Implemented basic cpu in C/C++
• code in https://github.com/pld-lessons/simple_cpu

For study

• Implement an assembler that accepts assembly in a nice, text format and outputs C code for it
• Modify tiny.cpp to read external binary files
• modify the assembler to generate binary files

Example assembly format

   //this is a commend and is ignored
   mov r0,1
   add r0,r1,r2
   add r0,r2 //this is a shorthand for add r0,r0,r2
   print r0

Computer architecture

• Introduction
  • Buses/Protocols, basic design ideas
  • how is cpu design done
  • What are SoCs
  • How does a typical simple cpu looks like
  • Emulation/simulation
    • Structure of a typical emulator
• Hands on stuff !
  • Think together an extremely simple cpu
  • Split into three teams
  • Implement it in verilog (team A)
  • Implement it in C/C++ (team B)
  • Implement a simple assembler (team C)
• Think together a custom, minimal SoC
  • We'll actually implement this later on :)
