Desigining A Microcontroller On Fpga using Verilog Hdl

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a student's project to design a microcontroller using Verilog on an FPGA, expressing frustration over a lack of guidance from their supervisor. They are studying relevant textbooks and using Xilinx Project Navigator but are unsure how to begin programming. Suggestions include consulting the manual for Xilinx tools and exploring examples of Verilog microprocessor cores on opencores.org to understand instruction sets and design options. The conversation emphasizes the importance of specific questions for better assistance and encourages simulation with Xilinx tools. Overall, the student seeks clear direction to start their project effectively.

Hi to all.

I am into my last semester of graduation, i have assigned a project "Design of a micro controller using verilog in a fpga"
i am studding the following books for help.
Advanced_Digital_Design_with_the_Verilog_HDL-M.D.Ciletti
and Verilog HDL (2nd Edition) by Samir Palnitkar
i have searched alot, my supervisor is not helping me i don't know what i should do.
i am using Xilinx project navigator.
please help me and guide me that how should start programming it from scrap, and what i must do.
i know how to make adders, encodes, shift registers etc.
so please guide me.

What exactly are you looking for, you can buy any of several soft processors for a FPGA. If I had to do it myself, I would look back to the old 1802 and make a model similar to it. Any of them though can be done. (BTW, I do not know Verilog; mine is of VHDL.)

Hi sanxmks,

Welcome to PF!

If you have specific question about Xilinx CAD tools, then you can ask them in the electrical engineering section. As your question currently stands, its a little too ambiguous. At this point the best advise I can give you is to refer to the manual that came with the CAD tool.
 
You can also look under projects at opencores.org. There are numerous examples of verilog microprocessor cores that you can look at to see what is involved. That may help you pick waht instruction set you want to be compatible with or what processor you want to emulate.

You can probably simulate some with Xilinx tools without too much effort.
 
Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
