Hi,
I don't understand if the number's MAC 8 MAC/cycle or 32 MAC/cycle?
I found this in tms320C6678 reference guide
In addition, the C66x core integrates floating point capability and the per core raw computational performance is an
industry-leading 32 MACS/cycle and 16 flops/cycle. It can execute 8 single precision floating point MAC operations
per cycle
Hi,
The MAC/cycle is depends on DSP operation. Please refer "Table 1-1 Raw Performance Comparison Between the C674x and the C66x" of "TMS320C66x DSP CPU and Instruction Set(Literature Number: SPRUGH7)".
Given that it's a DSP, it's normally reported in terms of MACs (Multiply-Accumulates per Second) and FLOPs (Floating Point Operations per Second) These are listed on the producted page -> TMS320C6678 as well as in the data manual as 320GMAC and 160GFLOP.
Please refer below threads which may help you to measure performance.
