What is GFLOPS number of i.MX6 Solo/ Dual / Quad processors ?

[doner_t]

Hello,

I need to know GFLOP(Giga Floating Point operations per second ) number of i.MX6 Solo/Dual/ Quad processor. Could you help me ?

Depends on what kind of operations you are asking.

The Cortex A9 NEON core can do:

1) 4 single precision multiply/multiply-accumulate in 2 cycles

2) 4 other single precision operation in 1 cycle.

In practice it's not difficult to achieve 25%-30% code efficiency.

For a 1Ghz single core configuration, you can have 1GHz*25%*4 = 1GFLOPS for trivial operations, and 500M multiply-accumulate per second.

To get closer to the peak performance requires a lot of hand optimized NEON code. 25% of the peak is what I usually get from GCC NEON intrinsics.

Hello,

Thank you very much !

But, now I need to know average power consumption of i.MX6 Solo/Dual/ Quad processor. I read datasheets. But not found a clear info.,

In the application note section you can find the power consumption measurements.
