Design and Implementation of 32 – bit RISC Processor using Xilinx

These RISC or Reduced Instruction Set Computer is a design philosophy that has become a mainstream in Scientific and engineering applications. The main objective of this paper is to design and implement of 32 – bit RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) processor using XILINX VIRTEX4 Tool for embedded and portable applications. The design will help to improve the speed of processor, and to give the higher performance of the processor. The most important feature of the RISC processor is that this processor is very simple and support load/store architecture. The important components of this processor include the Arithmetic Logic Unit, Shifter, Rotator and Control unit. The module functionality and performance issues like area, power dissipation and propagation delay are analyzed using Virtex4 XC4VLX15 XILINX tool
