Introduction In the first two parts of this series, I talked about picking the instruction set for my trivial processor. So far, however, I haven’t mentioned how the processor actually works to execute those instructions.

Go to the first post in this series. Introduction In the first two parts of this series, I talked about picking the instruction set for my trivial processor. So far, however, I haven’t mentioned how the processor actually works to execute those instructions. In the next few posts, I’m going to talk about the design and control of the circuitry in the processor. The Loop As I mentioned in part 1, the texts I’ve read have omitted several important steps in describing a CPU, and this is the first one of those.
