openMSP430 :: Area and speed analysis
Area and Speed analysis
Table of content
Warning: the results presented here might vary depending on the tool versions, applied timing constraints and exact configuration of the openMSP430 core.
The FPGA results were obtained using the free tool versions provided by the vendors (i.e ISE 11.1, QuartusII 9.1 & Libero 8.5).
The ASIC synthesis was run with Synopsys Design Compiler 2007.12 (without dc_ultra or any special feature).
