RE: Accuracy of Saturn CPU emulators

However, it's probably better to build a testbed for each instruction and its parameters [with poss dependence on prior instructions] and see those execute properly. Yeah, that's how I would do: concentrate on an instruction and iterate through its inputs. I could do it on a my 48GX... I need to find a RS-232 to USB cable to attach the kit.

Quote:On the other hand, the Saturn is not a complex CPU, which makes is much easier to emulate than an ARM of (gash!) intel chip. Indeed. Part of my day job is to write ARM CPU models, some of them being extremely complex as they have not only to be functionally accurate, but also cycle accurate. It's incredibly more difficult than writing a Saturn model (even though I think writing a good Saturn model is not an easy task). And x86, no way, never. That's the most horrible instruction set I ever had the displeasure to use. |
