The processor executes one instruction per 2 clock cycles; this makes with
200 MHz 100 MIPS. So both manuals are correct.

The 56300 Family does NOT require two clock cycles per instruction. It is a single cycle per instruction machine. The predicesor of the 56300, the 56000 Family requires two clocks per instruction. If you look at the PLL block diagram (Figure 6-2) and the Clkgen diagram (Figure 6-3) in the Family Manual you'll see that the VCO actually operates at twice the core clock frequency to make up for the final divide by 2 shown in Figure 6-3. This is all transparent to the user, who configures the PLL register for the core frequency desired. In other words, when you have configured the PCTL register for 100MHz operation, the VCO will be operating at 200MHz. Since the 56300 Family is a single cycle machine, this provides 100MIPS of execution power... -- dB --- Bende Georg <> wrote: > The processor executes one instruction per 2 clock cycles; this makes > with 200 MHz 100 MIPS.
