 Introduction

• An arithmetic logic unit (ALU) is a digital circuit used to perform

arithmetic and logical operations. It represents the fundamental
component of a computer's CPU.
• RAM is a high-speed, addressable, and volatile memory system that
computers use to store and retrieve data quickly during their
operation.
• Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) are specialized programming
languages for designing and simulating electronic circuits and
systems, aiding in digital hardware design and verification.
 Literature Review

• "The Elements of Computing Systems" is an educational book written

by Noam Nisan and Shimon Schocken.
• Covers the fundamentals Digital circuit design and how logic gates are
used to create basic building blocks for arithmetic and logical
operations.
• The book describes the designing of ALU and RAM using elementary
chips
• Central ideas for designing complex digital circuits: MODULARITY and
ABSTRACTION

 Objectives of Project

• The project is subdivided into the following goals:

• Objective-1:-Design and implementation of Combinational Chip Set-1
• Objective-2:- Design and implementation of Combinational Chip Set-2
• Objective-4:- Design and implementation of ALU
• Objective-3:- Design and implementation of Sequential Chip Set-1
• Objective-3:- Design and implementation of RAM
 Objectives of Project

• The interface of the chips is predefined and the chip is implemented

using HDL

DESIGN
INTERFACE IMPLEMENTATION
 Results & Discussions
• The verification of the chip
implementation (using HDL) is
done through the following:
1. Test scripts
2. Usage of a chip as a module
3. Manual testing
 Conclusion

• Achievement of Objectives: The primary objectives of designing and

implementing a 16-bit RAM and ALU have been successfully realized
in alignment with the principles outlined "The Elements of Computing
Systems.
• Implications: The project’s implications extend to the broader field of
digital design.
• Future Work: The project can be further extended by following the
book to built an entire computer system.
