EEMBC
Analog Devices recently announced the certified results for their Blackfin BF533 processor in a wide range of tests performed by the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium (EEMBC). ADI's Blackfin demonstrated strong performance in 11 EEMBC benchmark ratings, which test for specific capabilities in embedded communications, networking, consumer, office automation, automotive, industrial and digital entertainment applications. All of the tests were run using EEMBC's "out-of-the-box" C code.
