Discussion group dedicated to the Philips LPC2000 family of ARM MCUs
|
First, I want to say 'hello' to everybody since I'm new to this group and since English is my second language forgive me for any mistakes contained in this or future messages. And I have a question... off course :) I'm working on new design and it seems that LPC2124 is the perfect match for it. For past 9 years I used Microchip PIC16 family of MCU's so I don't know much about LPC family except what can be seen in Data Sheets, Errata Sheets and LPC User Manual. Anyway, I would like to know about processing power of LPC. How many MIPS are delivered at 60MHz? Happy New Year! Greetings from Serbia, Igor |

Yeah, but only in straightline code, I bet. -- Paul Curtis, Rowley Associates Ltd http://www.rowley.co.uk CrossWorks for MSP430 and ARM processors |

They don't say how they determined that value.

For instance an XJ220 goes really quickly in a straight line (high MIPS rating), but doesn't do too well when it comes to going around corners, the automotive equivalent of taking a branch... -- Paul Curtis, Rowley Associates Ltd http://www.rowley.co.uk CrossWorks for MSP430 and ARM processors |
