HI i am debuging a program written in C if i select 12MHz clock for the program There is a timer in the project window showing the time passed and the no of states(machine cycles). Can i rely on the timer for my time calculations???????
"Well, there's an blatantly obvious statement worthy of forgetting"
On the contrary - I think that it is a much too common belief that almost all ARM cores behaves the same and that almost all C51 are 1-cycle, 4-cycle, 12-cycle, ... and that no instruction ever deviates from the norm.
