The sequential method integrates processor modules step-by-step to create a cohesive system, emphasizing clarity and modularity.
1.Module Preparation: Define and independently test core components like the ALU, Control Unit (CU), Registers, and Memory Management Unit (MMU).
2.Core Integration: Connect the ALU and registers for basic data manipulation and flow operations.
3.Control Unit Integration: Add the CU for instruction decoding and execution, ensuring synchronization with other modules.
4.Memory Interface: Integrate the MMU to manage memory access and link the processor to memory for data storage.
This method offers a systematic approach, simplifies error isolation, and enables flexible, incremental testing for a reliable and efficient final system.
