Project Overview


Decorative: i281 Logo

The i281 CPU was originally designed by Dr. Alexander Stoytchev and Kyung-Tae Kim for CPR E 281. Expanding upon the original design, the i281 CPU Hardware Implementation project aims to create a physical version of the processor. This implementation remains faithful to the original design where possible given hardware limitations and provides an hands-on interactive environment for students and educators alike.
