Tutorial B2 Viewing Instruction Power Differences

; mul
: ;* Multiples two 8-bit numbers together.;* Takes 2 clock cycles to complete;* Intuitively expect fairly large power consumption due to complexity of operation required
; nop
: ;* Does nothing;* Takes 1 clock cycle to complete;* Intuitively expect low power consumption due to core doing nothing
Note that the capture clock is running at 4x the device clock. Thus a single <code>mul</code> instruction should span 8 samples on our output graph, since it takes 4 samples to cover a complete clock cycle.
