Abstract :
This article describes a student effort undertaken during the spring of 1970 at the University of Hawaii, Honolulu, on the complete design of a minicomputer, the UHC-1. The computer is a 16-bit, 4K, microprogrammed machine with Teletype interface. In this short paper our attention is focussed on the effort as an educational experience rather than on the details of the design itself. An evaluation in terms of the educational benefits of the project is given.
