The paper deals with design of a modern, open-architecture CPU utilizable for educational purposes. It is expected that use of the CPU in the educational process will greatly contribute to deeper understanding of key-topics taught in the area of modern architectures. Our CPU is based on the Von-Neumann architecture, equipped with a five-stage pipeline, cache memory unit and simple branch prediction unit. The architecture is designed in VHDL including set of 16 instructions. Rich variety of educative tasks can be performed by means of the CPU. It has been both successfully simulated in ModelSim and synthesized in Precision RTL Synthesis in order to be implemented in FPGA and utilized in practice as a real working CPU.
