| | Ive been getting into FPGAs lately. Last year I built an FPGA version of Ben Eaters breadboard computer, but Ive been wanting to do a more advanced project to help me gain experience with Verilog and FPGAs in general. For his breadboard computer, Ben Eater followed the design laid out in a book called Digital Computer Electronics by Malvino and Brown. The book builds what it calls the Simple-as-Possible (SAP) Computer.

| | This is part of a series of posts detailing the steps and learning undertaken to design and implement a CPU in VHDL. Previous parts are available here, and I'd recommend they are read before continuing. Memory Operations We already have a small RAM which holds our instruction stream, but our TPU ISA defines memory read and write instructions, and we should get those instructions working. It's the last major functional implementation we need to complete. The fetch stage is simply a memory read with the PC...
