MARVIN stands for

MARVIN

is a project by former IaC winners. It is a fun project to explore the possibilitys of emulating an actual computer on the de10-lite board.

We still have to figure out words which together result in the acronym MARVIN our project name.

Please have a look into our wiki which contains many helpful resources for getting started with this project and more generally with verilog Since this our very first verilog project

marvin's Issues

Enable Squashing

Apparently squashing (squash-merging) is currently not enabled. I suggest it be enabled for quality-of-life improvements.

Which coding style should we use?

I guess for the sake of consistency it would be nice to have one coding style.
Here are a few things i noticed which we might want to standardize:

Suggestions

• Name of the reset signal. Mattis is using 'rst'. Furthermore we should only use high-active resets
• folder structur: As already agreed on we will have a 'src' and i would furthermore suggest a 'utility' folder containing the modelsim and quartus files shared by all of us
• I guess we will use the normal convention that constants are capital and variables are small and follow the snake case convention
• Documentation of the file in its beginning like this:

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Project : MARVIN/VGA
// Module  : toplevel_debug
// Description: pass debug data to the FPGA
//
// Authors : Mattis Levin Hänsel
//
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Documentation

Some of those issues where already discussed in this pr
Furthermore I will document the coding style in the wiki

Move graphics folder to scr/graphics or src/vga or src/gu or src/gpu

...to comply with the guidelines.
