Register Memory Function Test

A project log for The Spikeputor

I am building a computer featuring a 16-bit RISC CPU made of discrete transistors for learning, fun and art. It will be pretty large.

I'm almost completely finished with Register Memory. All there is left is to finish the final three-bit boards for four registers (you can see these as "wire only" breadboards on the far left). Meanwhile, here's a video of a quick test. I used an Arduino to make clock pulses and to put a random number at the Register Memory Input on each cycle. I used another Arduino to pick a random register to write to and two random registers to send to the Channel A and Channel B outputs. So far, so good!
