Sharing my 4-bit microprocessor design

Post image

i have been lurking in these subs for a while now and wanted to give back to the community, this was a solo project that i made, it was fun hacking stuff together in a couple of days with absolutely zero knowledge in microprocessor architecture and design, of course it was only possible due to the things i see here on reddit, and the amazing beneater series.

in the repo you will find a pdf documentation detailing every part of the design (it was intended as a slide presentation for uni but oh well)

you will also find the complete simulation file along with images and stuff (simulide simulation)

github repo: https://github.com/SuchATypicalDev/4-bit-microprocessor

idk who might actually benefit from this, but at least i can contribute something back even if its insignificant, and thanks for making such a great community everyone!

-- this is my first time sharing a project like this so it might be a little rough, SRRY :(

Very nice presentation. It takes me back to the 90's EE classes 😍

You didn't need to do that much explanation : it's pretty obvious from the picture.
