Abstract :
LX-1 is an integrated circuit prototype of a microprocessor which is being used as a design vehicle to study the problems associated with the design and implementation of a similar computer constructed with large-scale integrated circuits. The organizational simplicity of LX-1 is emphasized and the supporting microprogramming and simulation facilities are discussed and examples are given.
