This is a DE2-hardware version of a pipelined RiSC-16 processor. The stored program is the same as the simulation project jsim3 v3.
The CPU clock can be set to 1 second by setting SW17. Otherwise the clock is 50 MHz. LEDG0 is turned on when the CPU is active.
When the CPU is active, HEX6 shows the CPU state (IFE = 1 or MEM = 2). The other states correspond to CPU inactive and HEX6 is blanked.
When the CPU is active,
HEX4 shows the current rd register and HEX3:HEX0
shows the value qd in hex. Note that qd is only
written to the register file when the write-enable bit is set (state
is IFE) and rd > 0. The sequence of values
should be the same as
shown in the formatted vector table file (see simulation)
SW3 enables display of the cycle count on HEX3:HEX0 and blanks the register value in HEX4.
When the CPU is not active, SW[2:0] determines the register number in HEX4 and corresponding register contents in HEX3:HEX0.
The pushbutton KEY0 resets the CPU.
