MAXQ Competitive Performance

Analysis of the ATmega8

Benchmark Study Details
The following table shows the tools used for comparison with the TI benchmark study, plus the raw results of each individual benchmark in both fastest and smallest configurations.
Notes on the benchmark study:
  1. The FIR filter benchmark would not run correctly (simulator would not terminate) unless "Block Localization Optimization" was disabled.
