V8-CPU simulator is used for labs& exercises on first-year(freshman) undergraduate CS course "An Overview of Computer Science" in Dept. of CS in Tsinghua Univ. This simulator provides a simplified assembler/C syntax and is simulating a simple 8-bit RISC cpu. Press Help inside the simulator to see an overview about the supported instructions, which is based on Appendix C contents in Computer Science: An Overview textbook.
- 8-bit RISC CPU
- 15 general purpose registers
- program counter register
- 1 timer count-downregister
- 256 bytes of memory
- a printer(like a output serial)
- assembler (see 'assemble' button)
- binary code/data uploader(see 'upload' button)
- several assembly code example(see 'Examples' list)
- 4KB disk (To Be Done)
- C-subset compiler (To Be Done)
Make sure you have Grunt installed to compile the asmsimulator.js script.
