Just been given my final year project as part of my uni course. Wanna know what it is?

I have to come up with an "FPGA Implementation of the RTX2000 RISC Processor".

Yup, that's what I thought too.

Wish me luck, I think I'll need it....

Just give it all up, YH, and drive a bus instead.

It's a much simpler life!

I looked up "FPGA Implementation" on Google.com and got over 5000 results, so looks like there's plenty there to give food for thought.

The title "An FPGA Implementation of Triangle Mesh Decompression (2002)" sounded particularly interesting. So did "An FPGA Implementation of the Petri net Firing Algorithm".

But I read neither. I'll leave that to someone else who can possibly understand it.

Yeah, you see it's very simple. All you need to do is-

*runs*



What in the blue HECK does that mean? You should slap the guy who sets this stuff

They must have been in the old 80s mobiles. You could never fit an arm in a mobile today cos they're just too small.

I did the ARM processor (one you find in most mobile phones).

Sounds like you are going to be a busy bunny. I'm aiming for something web related (database or interactive site etc) for my project. Get given it next week!

I know that one !

It's the little bit of gubbins full of silicon and wires and stuff that does all the work and gets overheated and then slows down.

I think it is a RISC processor designed by a University. Nowhere near the likes of Intel or AMD but for those interested I'm sure it will show all the basics in good processor design. Maybe. :-)

I studied the MipsCo processor at uni.

Do you have to re-design the processor to handle a new intsruction set (or software)?

Sounds fun :(

What course you doing at uni?
Sounds a bit similar to a few of my computer science classes I have sat but in a bit more detail etc. Still don't understand what it means, :-)

Good luck though, keep us updated on how it goes.
