My first CPU/Microprocessor is finally here. with an 8-Bit architecture and 15 instructions. i think i learned some cool things while doing this, so maybe i will try and make this faster in a future project.

    deathhawk: I'd actually think that a little memory controller for external rom would be cool

    what about using the r4 to emulate peripherals for this like the r4 connects to this and adds addressable ram and rom or maybe even a screen would that be possible?

    LBPHacker: thanks for the suggestion! i was thinking about making a bigger memory, but i decided to keep it simple as im still learning. but i will try bigger memory with my next project :)

    Amazing work. Giving it slightly more addressable instruction memory (like idk, 64? 128?) would make it possible to store what's essentially microcode and have it execute higher-level instructions loaded from a bigger address space with inp/out, and thus more complicated programs; that would be fun.

    it might not be able to run doom since not even the R4 is likely to be able to properly run doom yet

    Thinking of making an ingame assembler for this

    This is not a CPU/Processor! This is a Package of ROM, CPU and more.
