  • MEM

Control Unit

  • Connection of the stages.
  • Design FSM for control signals.

Advanced Custom commands

  1. addi_MMX_byte

Pipeline proc

  1. Mods on Datapath
    • new registers
    • solve stalls/forwarding
  2. Modification on Control
    • solve hazards (data/control)

How to run

Xilinx ISE® design suite 13.7 and above

To run the project

  1. Install Xilinx suite from https://www.xilinx.com/downloadNav/vivado-design-tools/archive-ise.html
  2. Clone code from git
  3. File > Import > Existing Projects into Workspace > Locate project
    • Copy projects into workspace if you do want to copy the project files to your current workspace location.

To run the simulation (.wcfg)

  1. Find simulation files in hierarchy
    • Import them if they do not appear
  2. Simulate behavioral model
  3. Check system behavior based on scenarios (different input signal)

Projects were created in older version of Xilinx.
For incompatibility issues, make an new project and copy .vhd files.
