@kkarhan @stman Yes, it's a new ISA from scratch. It's a lightly-pipelined RISC-style 24-bit architecture designed with an eye toward teaching about computer science.
This is just an introduction... I'll be sharing more technical details here and on the website after I get through this round of testing.

Welcome to the world, little one.
Meet the very first Sprout24 CPU, fully assembled tonight for the first time.
25 circuit boards, 2600+ components, 730 LEDs, 1000+ integrated circuits, 9700+ logic gates, and over 29,000 transistors.
She's going to be a thing of poetry when she starts executing code.
I've tested each board individually, but have yet to apply power to the entire thing. I'm not sure I'm ready yet to dare try.
