For this week, I did some research and study on the 6502 processor and instruction set. I found other open-source projects that have demos on simulation of the processor and attempted to test them on VCS and Icarus Verilog. The main issue that I found and made progress through is how to convert assembly 6502 assembly code to bytecode and provide them to the CPU test bench. I have also studied through the structure of the 6502 processor to understand how the code works.
The progress is on schedule, we plan to complete the main CPU and run tests on those during the first few weeks, what I did is some progress on this step. For the next week, the goal is to run all the tests for the CPU, pass them and try to synthesize through Vivado, and do some timing analysis.
