9086 logo

A CPU that aims to be binary compatible with the 8086 and with as many optimisations as possible

Progress

  • Executing code
  • Is Turing complete
  • Can boot up MS-DOS / FreeDOS
  • Is completely binary compatible
  • Is pipelined
  • Is Out of Order
  • Is superscalar
  • Has been successfully synthesized

Simulating it

To simulate this project you need Icarus Verilog, bin86, GNU make, xxd and the posix coreutils. After that you can run make on the top level directory and it should build everything and start the simulation

At the time of development the versions used are :

  • Icarus Verilog version 11.0 (stable)
  • bin86 version: 0.16.17
  • GNU Make 4.3
  • xxd 2022-01-14
  • GNU coreutils 8.32
