Excel 16-Bit CPU

Excel 16-Bit CPU

A 16-bit CPU built in Excel

Description

Computer architecture courses teach registers, clocks and fetch-execute with diagrams far from real hardware. This project builds a 16-bit CPU from Excel formulas, with 16 registers, 128KB of RAM and a 128x128 display.

Enable iterative calculation and each F9 press is a clock tick; an assembler lets you write programs that run in the sheet.

Features



Full CPU:Registers, RAM and display.

Clock:Step with F9.

Assembler:Write programs.

Teaching:See every step.
