Background and Method1.1 – Background In a FPGA design software, graphical design such as schematic entry is an option for designers. Alternatively, using a simulation tool, based on SPICE such as the Multisim, to simulate a simple computer has not been tried by many designers, but is the intention of this paper, especially for educational purposes. In reference [1], the Multisim was used to implement an ALU, but not a computer. This paper here extends the ALU in [1] to design a complete simple computer. Many digital systems such as reference

larger curricular sequence that implements aStudent-driven Pedagogy of Integrated, Reinforced, Active Learning (SPIRAL) approach tolearning. The educational gains that are possible from active learning are difficult to realize incourses with large enrollments and students with widely varying backgrounds, especially in thesefinancially difficult times in large public universities. To overcome these difficulties we havebegun using advances in communication technology, computer aided engineering (CAE)software, Computer Automated Manufacturing (CAM), and rapid prototyping tools to increasethe amount of "hands on" interactive learning in our new sequence of two, large, required, first-year courses. Specifically, we are experimenting with: classroom
