z386: An Open-Source 80386 Built Around Original Microcode

There are many ways you can implement an Intel i386 CPU on an FPGA, with the use of original microcode probably being one of the most interesting approaches. This is what [nand2mario]’s z386 project does, with a recent blog post summarizing development on this FPGA project so far. This project is similar to the previously developed z8086 project , which as one may guess does something similar, except for the Intel 8086 CPU.
