- Abstract
In this article we introduce the use of a programmable logic device (PLD) in an application-oriented study as an example of designing a microprocessor based on reduced instruction set computer (RISC) architecture. Since the concept of an in-system configurable logic circuit is becoming increasingly popular, we now use it for the purpose of logic design. We suggest that students use PLDs when constructing a central processing unit (CPU) with their own configured functions that are directly implemented in the logic. Such an approach could greatly increase the understanding of the architectural concept of the CPU. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
