Abstract

A microprocessor (sometimes abbreviated pP) is a digital electronic component with transistors on a single semiconductor integrated circuit (IC). One or more microprocessors typically serve as a central processing unit (CPU) in a computer system or handheld device [ 1 ] . Microprocessors made possible the advent of the microcomputer. Before this, electronic CPUs were typically made from bulky discrete switching devices containing the equivalent of only a few transistors. By integrating the processor onto one or a very few large-scale integrated circuit packages, the cost of processor power was greatly reduced. Since the advent of the IC in the mid-1970s, the microprocessor has become the most prevalent implementation of the CPU, nearly completely replacing all other forms. This project is trying to design an 8 bit microprocessor by using VHDL. VHDL is stand for Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language. It is one of the most popular design application uses by most designers nowadays. The microprocessor will be synthesized in VHDL using Xilinx ISE. Then it will be simulated using ModelSim and the programs are burn into FPGA board. The FPGA should act as actual microprocessor. The 8 bit microprocessor is widely use in microcontroller devices with specific task because it has a specific instruction where it only done a given instruction.
