#90434 - Not always.. Responding to: ???'s previous message |
I think this is dangerous because C masks the underlying register manipulations and type sizes so it is very easy to write slow inefficient calculation code in C. Not neccessarily. I almost always use the MCU for industrial control applications and have typical code scan times ranging from 10ms to 50ms. And with such a "comfortable" time coupled with the modern speed demons, 6 clockers and big flash memories, I have not been hit by a "slow inefficient" code. I use Keil and ALWAYS stick to fixed point arithmetic as opposed to floating point. Possibly what you said might be relevant to someone who is trying to squeeze a big job into a small space and do it as fast as it can be done - maybe a mission critical multi level closed loop velocity control. Maybe. Raghu |
