Please do Homework #7
Part II
Take the program you developed in a recent lab that computed the first 5 fibonacci numbers.
Create an endless loop around your program (add a jmp instruction at the end).
Compute the number of cycles the loop takes. Compute the average CPI (Cycles per Instruction), which is a measure of performance of the processor.
What is the average MIPS rating of the 6811 (Million of instructions per second), assuming that the operating speed of the processor is 2MHz?
