Abstract

U ovom radu napravljena je jednostavna implementacija protočnog RISC-V procesora baziranog na RV32I arhitekturi. Za implementaciju korišten je jezik VHDL i Xilinx Vivado WebPack razvojno sučelje. Procesor je testiran koristeći razvojnu platformu Digilent Nexys A7. Procesoru je radi testiranja na razvojnoj platformi dodan i sabirnički upravljač. Opisane su i vanjske jedinice koje procesor povezuju s uređajima na razvojnoj platformi. Za ispitivanje procesora razvijena su i objašnjena tri jednostavna programa. Za kraj analizirane su performanse procesora i dane su preporuke za njegov daljnji razvoj.

Abstract (english)

This thesis describes the implementation of a simple pipelined RISC-V processor based on the RV32I instruction set architecture. The processor was implemented using VHDL and Xilinx Vivado WebPack software suite. Tests were done on a Digilent Nexys A7 development board. The processor also contains a simple bus controller to enable the processor to interface with development board's devices. For the purposes of testing three programs have been developed and explained. Finally, the processors performance has been analyzed and some ideas for improving the processors performance have been given.
