Embedded System Emulator and Cross-Assembler for the RCA CDP1802a chip

About

This is a clock-cycle accurate hardware emulator and cross-assembler for the legacy RCA CDP1802a 8-bit microprocessor, made from scratch.

The goal of this project is to not only emulate a very unique and old chip architecture, but also allow the user to have the ability to design and create embedded systems with multiple moving parts and CPUs that communicate with each other.

Features:

• Cross-assembler for RCA 1802 assembly
• Emulator for the RCA 1802 chip
• Independent system bus, MMIO, and (future) PMIO design
• Architecture supporting independent, interacting parallel systems
• YAML parsing for designing and testing custom embedded systems
