Course description and aims

This lab exercise contains a software part (assembly programming) and a hardware part (logic design) where each exercise will be conducted in groups of 3 - 4 students. In the second part, each group will conduct a project of their choice starting from project planning, design, and documentation to experience group work.

Student learning outcomes

Obtain knowledge of 16-bit microprocessor instruction set and assembly programming skills.
Obtain skills for designing and simulating microprocessors in a hardware description language.
Obtain skills for verifying microprocessors on FPGA board.
Experience group work on microprocessor design project.

Keywords
