This repository contains Verilog code used to produce hardware that can execute Nock code directly.
Design and Reference documentation along with a general chat can be found by joining the urbit group:
~mopfel-winrux/NockPU
This project can be simulated with iverilog and the waveform can be viewed with gtkwave. Please make sure those are installed on your system.
To compile the project run
iverilog -o npu.vvp -c command_file
This will create a file called npu.vvp. This can be simulated with vvp using the following command
vvp npu.vvp
When the simulation stops you can type finish to stop the simulation. This will create a file called waveform.vcd which will contain the waveform of the model.
This can be viewed using gtkwave:
gtkwave waveform.vcd
In the verilog folder there is the verilog code that can be synthesized into hardware.
The simulation folder contains the ModelSim project files that are used to run simulations of the hardware.
The synthesis folder contains the Quartus project file that is used to synthesize the verilog code into hardware.
The memory folder contains memory files that can be loaded onto the synthesized SRAM.
The testbenches folder contains wrapper classes for different verilog modules to perform unit tests.
It contains Quartus and ModelSim project files . The synthesis and simulation folders respectively
This work has been made possible by a Grant from Tacen.
