Hello,
I've been wondering for some time now: how does one start the process of fabricating a CPU? What is the detailed design flow for it?
By CPU, I mean that chip everyone has on their PC motherboards.
I know very well the elements that're needed, but how does one come up with it?
In embedded systems design flow, we usually start with requirements and work our way down from that to functional models, then to a hardware prototypes. Is that also the case for a CPU?
