Introduction

A 32-bit microprocessor with 42 instructions (including multiplication and division) and 8 X 32 registers and 2048 X 32 Ram with shared stack. An assembler is also available to write programs on the microprocessor using 8086-like assembly.

Schematic

The full schematic can be found in the rtl.pdf file in the project main directory.

JNZ	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if zero flag is LOW [Jump Not Zero]
JEQ	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if zero flag is HIGH [Jump Equal]
JNEQ	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if zero flag is LOW [Jump Not Equal]
JG	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if sign flag is LOW and zero flag is LOW [Jump Greater]
JL	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if sign flag is HIGH and zero flag is LOW [Jump Less]
JGE	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if sign flag is LOW or zero flag is HIGH [Jump Greater or Equal]
JLE	@Label	N/A	Jump to Label if sign flag is HIGH or zero flag is HIGH [Jump Less or Equal]

Language Rules

The assembly language used is very similar to the one used in the 8086 with a few differences:

• Labels
  • Labels start with the '@' charachter
  • The instrcution following the label has to be in a separate line.
  • Example:

MOVI CX, 0xF
@Loop
    SUBI CX, 0x1
    JNZ @Loop
HLT

• Comments
  • Comments start with the ';' charachter.

; This is a valid comment.

• Numbers
  • Numbers are written as follows

MOVI AX, 0b101000 ; Use the prefix "0b" for binary,
MOVI BX, 0d40     ; "0d" for decimal,
MOVI CX, 0x28     ; and "0x" for hexadecimal.

• Case Sensitivity
  • This language is case insensetive.

Run Your Program

To run your program on the processor, write it in /chasm/goodisa.asm and run the chasm.py file, then on modelsim, type do ../test/topTst.do to run the program.

Sample Program

; This program calculates the fibbonaci number of the number in the DX register.

nop
nop

@VarInit
    movi cx, 0x2    ; Iterator
    movi ax, 0x1    ; Auxillary register
    movi bx, 0x0    ; Result
    movi dx, 0d40   ; Input data

    movi ey, 0x1    ; Previous Fibonacci number
    movi ex, 0x1    ; Before previous Fibonacci number
    

@Loop
    cmp cx, dx
    jeq @EndLoop

    mov bx, ey
    add bx, ex
    mov ax, bx

    mov ex, ey
    mov ey, ax

    addi cx, 0x1
    
    jmp @Loop
@EndLoop

push bx
