Hi.
I need the MIPS of cortex m7 processor. The results which I saw on wikipedia were in DMIPS. But i need it in MIPS only.
Can someone help me with it?
Thanks,
Shreyas
Hi Shreyas,
I am a bit puzzled by your request. Counting the number of instruction executed / second doesn't necessary give you indication of performance. In theory Cortex-M7 could execute up to two instruction per cycle, so peak MIPS is 2 Million Instructions per MHz. But in real world applications the MIPS figure would be lower because some instructions cannot be dual-issued and there can be branch penalty if branch prediction missed.
regards,
Joseph
