Simple-As-Possible computer
Computer architecture for educational purposes
The Simple-As-Possible (SAP) computer is a simplified computer architecture designed for educational purposes and described in the book Digital Computer Electronics by Albert Paul Malvino and Jerald A.
Brown.[1] The SAP architecture serves as an example in Digital Computer Electronics for building and analyzing complex logical systems with digital electronics.
Digital Computer Electronics successively develops three versions of this computer, designated as SAP-1, SAP-2, and SAP-3.
Each of the last two build upon the immediate previous version by adding additional computational, flow of control, and input/output capabilities. SAP-2 and SAP-3 are fully Turing-complete.
The instruction set architecture (ISA) that the computer final version (SAP-3) is designed to implement is patterned after and upward compatible with the ISA of the Intel 8080/8085 microprocessor family.
Therefore, the i
