After putting down the initial design for the ALU, I believe that its time to consider how to organise the memory of the system. Especially in view of the design goal of using a RAM based register-to-register design, like it was used in the Texas Instruments TMS9900, which itself was a single chip implementation of TI's TI-990.
You will certainly now ask, 'Why are you already jumping to the ALU?' Because my brain wants to take care of the ALU first, largely for reasons of interest. Besides, having a design of the ALU allows me to have an idea what operations it can do, once I go for creating the instruction set.
This is something completely different to what I originally meant to do with this page/blog, which was to have a place to put my creative fiction work.
But lately, maybe inspired by the stuff I've been reading lately, combine with copious amount of time to thing at a job I can do on autopilot, has made me come to this conclusion.
