Great, now show us a photo where some of them are connected to something.Hello Gophert
here one piece of alu there almost 256 wires

there 4 MUX 18 pins so 4 * 16 = 72 wires so 16 inputs to ground, 16 input to input, 16 ouput to to inverter ..?????
The ALU module has three, 16 bit bus connections and about eight individual control signals.
If you think it has 200+ connections you still have very serious misunderstandings of how such things work.
oo i flogg also one dead man hahahaMicheal you are flogging a dead horse.
there 4 MUX 18 pins so 4 * 16 = 72 wires so 16 inputs to ground, 16 input to input, 16 ouput to to inverter ..
after 4 INVERTER 14 pins 4 * 14 = 56 wires ( so i use all six inverters i mean i need it four inverter in chip and there are six inverter)
so 16 output to MUX
after 4 MUX again the same 4 * 16 = 72 wires so 16 Iinputs to output of inverter, 16 inputs to output of 16 output of first MUX, 16 output to 16 input
of 16 input of full adder
and FINAL fulladder chip 16 pins 4 * 16 = 72 wires so 16 input to 16 ouput of SECOND MUX, 16 input must connect in future and 16 OUTPUT FOR FUTURE but i think there is no future
where are the VCC GND SELECT STROBE wires
so in total 72 + 56 + 72 + 72 + 272 wires
right?
to beter understand me, I did this piece, whats wrong i did?Wrong...
Two 16 bit input busses - then the rest of the connections are directly between components on that board, no external wiring until you get to the 16 bit output.
Plus half a dozen individual control signals and ground / power.
As I said, you seem to misunderstand the basic concepts.
no i realy understand just like i say in begin vga keyboard i dont understand, but now i stop working they come beter idea and easyWrong...

HEY you andShow a picture of the electronics on that board with all the wires ......
to beter understand me, I did this piece, whats wrong i did?
hmm me smell troll, see post 42,43 ... Wekend , Wekeng
no google translator could be that sloppy... even if it tried
Hello thank you very much for info, but i buy this one i ask on line to ali express" can i build 16 BIT cpu i told me yes, is chip 25EuroBuilding the whole ALU module on one circuit board would have taken less space than splitting it and adding all the wire links.
It's not normal to use jumper links with pin terminal ends for soldered interconnections, just normal wire stripped and cut to length as required.
Re. the FPGA, I've never used one for anything like that so I do not know all the possibilities that could work.
You would need one with RAM included, rather than a gate-only type.
An EP4C115 would likely be suitable; some people have built PDP-8 emulators using the DE2-115 development kit which uses that device.
eg.
P0059 Terasic Inc. | Development Boards, Kits, Programmers | DigiKey
Order today, ships today. P0059 – EP4CE115 series FPGA Evaluation Board from Terasic Inc.. Pricing and Availability on millions of electronic components from Digi-Key Electronics.www.digikey.co.uk

Or a Xilinx Spartan-3E device - again, that has enough capability to use for a microcomputer emulator.
The dev kit for that:
Nexys 2 (Legacy) - Digilent Reference
Nexys 2 (Legacy) The Nexys 2 is now retired and no longer for sale in our store. We recommend the Nexys A7 FPGA as an alternative. Nexys2 circuit board is a complete, ready-to-use circuit development platform based on a Xilinx Spartan 3E FPGA. Its on-board high-speed USB2 port, 16Mbytes ofstore.digilentinc.com
I suggest that if you are considering anything like either of those, you wait for a development kit to appear on ebay at a sensible price!

"can i build 16 bit cpu on this fpga, they told me yes so i buy it"
ah you are specialist of chip ;-))) , i think RAM 16K and ROM 32K, but i think i can use to 65K RAM, he have more then enough Ram memoryThere could have been a problem in that you are not building a CPU - you are building a complete computer with RAM, Program memory and display memory.
The RP4CE6 has 270Kbit RAM and looks to use an 18 bit memory organisation? That makes it around 30720 words equivalent of RAM (30K words)
In the nand2tetris design, the display uses 8K words. I cannot remember how big the program memory and working RAM are - will they all fit in 30K ?
If so, you have got a bargain!

man can you help me for display
what i need to do to connect the display i mean in vhdl?
