General info

This project is a Xilinx ISE project, not aimed to be ported on a real FPGA, just for simulation purposes. Developed for the Computer Organisation class, spring semester 2018-2019, Technical University of Crete.

Technologies

Project is created with:

• Xilinx ISE (webpack): v.13.7

Setup

To run this project, an excisting Xilinx installation is required. Just clone the repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/ctsiaousis/mipsMultiCycleProcessor.git 

Then cd into the project folder and open the LAB4_impl.xise file with your ISE.

$ cd mipsMultiCycleProcessor/xilinxProject

Design

• The CPU implements a subset of MIPS architecture instructions. More specifically:

• The Design is fairly simple and can also be viewed from the ISE. A simplified datapath is like so:
• Also the Datapath is auto controlled by a multiCycle FSM(state machine).

Example

A simple example also included in the project's simulation files that covers the interrupt handling.
