I recently finished building Ben Eater's 8-bit Breadboard Computer but near the end of it I realized that much of the fun was in the design and the learning, but the act of actually cutting wire was an exercise in tedium. I wasn't quite ready to put the 8-bit computer behind me, but I didn't want to cut or bend wire anymore. I then emulated the 8bit CPU on the original Game Boy, building it from scratch in assembly. |

It's a simple question really: how can you read and write to the same register in a single-cycle processor? If you have spent most of your life working with software, it is tempting to think of all events as happening sequentially. However, that sequential model that we have become so familiar with as software engineers is really an abstraction that hardware offers to us to help our simple brains reason about logic. |

[AI summary] The article provides an in-depth exploration of computer architecture and assembly language, focusing on the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). It covers fundamental concepts such as machine words, registers, and the role of assembly language as a human-readable representation of machine instructions. The text explains how programs are structured using instructions, labels, and directives, and categorizes instructions into arithmetic, memory, control flow, and miscellaneous types. It also delves into the calling convention, which defines how functions are called and how data is passed between them, and highlights the importance of maintaining the call stack illusion. The article further discusses the practical implications of these conce... |
