MIPS Singlecycle Processor
Assignment Outline
This assignment is to test your understanding of the MIPSLite singlecycle processor design presented in the lectures.
A sample Verilog code is available at Appendix A. You will need to add an Instruction memory to the design and initialise it with your assembly code. The procedure for process is given in the Appendix B.
Currently the memory initialization file of the instruction memory ROM is empty. You can write the machine code of your instructions into the memory locations of the initialisation file.
The assignment is to be undertaken in a series of steps which you should complete in order. To ensure that it is your own work that is being assessed, Appendix C shows the specific requirements for each student.
1. Write a programme to: 15 Marks
a. Load the data stored in the X and Y locations of the data memory into the X and Y registers.
b. Add the X and Y registers and store the result in the Z register.
c. Store the data from the Z register into the Z memory location.
d. Load the data in the Z memory location into the T register.
2. Simulate your program to show the contents of the X, Y, and T registers. 10 Marks
3. Modify the program.mif file to simulate the operation of the BEQ instruction. 10 Marks
4. Modify the design of the processor so that the Jump J instruction is implemented. 15 Marks Modify the program.mif file to simulate the operation of the Jump instruction. 10 Marks
5. Modify the designs so that the additional instructions given in the column Design 1 is correctly executed. 15 Marks
6. Modify the program.mif file to simulate the operation of the additional instruction. 10 Marks
7. Change the processors data bus width from 32 to the one indicated in the table. Repeat the simulation of step 2 using your new processor. 15 Marks
MIPS instructions reference data is provided.
Reports
Your report should include the following contents:
1. The MIPS code and how the corresponding machine code is decided.
2. Simulation waveforms for the PC, opcode, ALUResultOut, DReadData and relevant registers X, Y, T must be annotated. You should clearly indicate why the simulations show that the operation is correct or incorrect.
2. Description of the modifications made to the Verilog code for implementing the Jump instruction. Highlight the changes made in the code.
3. Description of the modifications made to implement the additional instruction. Highlight the changes made in the code.
4. Description of the modifications made to change the data bus width.
Submission Date
A single PDF file should be submitted to ICE by 1pm on Monday 2nd December 2019 Week 13. This file should be named as surnameforenameA2.pdf, e.g. XuMingA2.pdf. The contents in each submission must be consistent with the tasks assigned to a specific student; otherwise a zero mark will be awarded. There is no demonstration lab session for this assignment.

Inserting LPM ROM
Select MegaWizard PlugIn Manager from the tools menu and click on the Next button.
Select the ROM: 1PORT and give a name to the output file. This name should be the same as the one which has been used for Instruction memory instantiation in your Verilog code.
Select the width and depth of the memory.
Deselect the input and output registers.
Give a name to the memory initialisation file, e.g. Instruction.mif. You can use your name as the file name. In this case you should edit the Verilog module name in the provided code.
Deselect the creation of the optional files and click on Finish button.
Click on the New icon and select the Memory Initialization File.
Input 32 for the Number of words and 32 for the Word size.
Now you can insert your machine code into the Instruction memory locations. You should be noted that this memory is not byte oriented and addresses are incremented by one not by 4.
