Abstract

Harvard computer architecture is one of the most common computer architectures today and most personal computers are built on the principles of its modified version. In this paper, a simple 16-bit Harvard architecture computer system is constructed with its most important parts: central processing unit and memory, with the special attention given to the programmability achieved through a careful design of its set of machine instructions.

Keywords

hardware description language, Harvard computer architecture, central pro- cessing unit, arithmetic-logic unit, memory
