Abstract
A hardware simulator for simulating digital structures includes a general purpose computer and an improved simulator processor. The improved processor handles an advanced primitive having four inputs and one output and which is capable of representing a memory cell or similar structure. The architecture of the processor provides highly efficient compilation of the input states of a primitive and the primitive evaluator and resolver logic provide the output state in a minimum number of clock cycles. The simulator is a single, low cost unit capable of simulating 64K cell structures with a speed comparable to prior art simulators.
