This work aims at improving an existing soft microprocessor core optimized for Xilinx Virtex®-4 FPGA. Instruction and data caches will be designed and implemented. Interrupt support will be added as well, preparing the microprocessor core to host operating systems. Thorough verification of the added modules is also emphasized in this work. Maintaining core clock frequency at its maximum has been the main concern through all the design and implementation steps.
