New 8-bit Processor
-
Well you can also just improve my processor, put multiplication and division, and you can set up a new TPT record again :D

Awesome, this must be the first 8b processor it TPT, am I right? I was working on one myself, though I was using 8b instructions. It's been ages since I worked on it, but I might pick it up again when I'm less busy. Anyway, great job with the processor! I'm still not sure how to get your program wrighter to work though. It looks like the data flow operation controls how the rest of the instruction is interpreted. If so, I think it'd be useful to clarify that in your post. Also, what happens if you specify an ALU operation, say ADD, and a data flow op like C -> A? Does the ADD have any effect?
-
The ALU operations don't work if you don't specify either ALU -> C or ALU -> RAM. If you look at the first post, I made examples for every instruction, which shows you what other fields need to be fulfilled.
Data flow operations just tell the processor where you're taking information from, and where it's going to. All they do is basically turn on/off WIFI gates on the inputs/outputs of the RAM/registers/ALU.
Alexthesax made the first 8-bit processor I think.

I dont get it. How do I set a FILT from 0 to 1? You didnt really explain this dude.
EDIT:
Also, Your program maker doesnt make sense. I followed all the instructions but the BRAY just did the same thing over and over again. The C4 only had lines in it from where the BRAY was so the program did absoloutley nothing.
