#157084 - Definition of "most" Responding to: ???'s previous message |
It looks like I was wrong when I said most.
I took the Keil data base and sorted it by number of data pointers. Of the 912 devices listed, 65% only have one data pointer. The number varies greatly by manufacturer. Silicon Labs has a lot of parts, and none have data pointers. The list also includes a number of obsolete parts, both with and without data pointers. For the major manufacturers, here are the percentages of offerings with a single data pointer: Atmel: 42% Dallas: 36% Infineon: 69% Intel: 100% NXP: 43% SiLabs: 100% ST: 41% TI: 21% I spend a good deal of my day studying Atmel and NXP data sheets, and so my sample was biased. |

Calm down - it's perfectly valid and correct | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
