What is Cratif all about??

A Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) Processor. Implemented using VHDL Simulation will be done using XILINX ISE 13.2 software. A Development Board, FPGAs will be used for the implementation.

SPECIALITY OF RISC SYSTEMS

The key elements of RISC systems shared by most designs are: A simple instruction set. A large number of general purpose registers. Optimizing the instruction pipeline.

REVIEW OF INSTRUCTION CHARACTERISTICS:WHY WERE THOSE CHOSEN

Operations Performed Operands used Execution Sequencing MOST IMPORTANT: The use of a large register file. Why is it preferred over Cache Memory?

CHARACTERISTICS OF RISC
Only one Machine Cycle per instruction. Most operations are Register to Register. Use of simple addressing modes. Use of simple Instruction Formats.

Introduction
Alpha AXP- a 64-bit RISC ISA. Developed by- DEC in 1985. Designed to replace the 32-bit VAX CISC. It has no 32- bit version.
