嵌入式微处理器基准协会（EEMBC发音同“embassy”）是一个非盈利组织，它开发基准软件，帮助设计师为他们的系统选择正确的嵌入式处理器。EEMBC制定的基准算法和开发的应用组成了一些基准套系，主要是针对消费电子、数字娱乐、网络、汽车/工业、电信、Java和办公设备产品的。一种称为MultiBench的另一套基准，特别针对基于SMP架构的多核处理器能力。通过加入EEMBC的开放成员或公司或大学许可项目，可以获得这些基准。

EEMBC, the Embedded Microprocessor Benchmark Consortium, was formed in 1997 to develop meaningful performance benchmarks for the hardware and software used in embedded systems. Through the combined efforts of its members, EEMBC® benchmarks have become an industry standard for evaluating the capabilities of embedded processors, compilers, and Java implementations according to objective, clearly defined, application-based criteria.

Since releasing its first certified benchmark scores in April 2000, EEMBC scores have effectively replaced the obsolete Dhrystone mips, especially in situations where real engineering value is important. EEMBC benchmarks reflect real-world applications and the demands that embedded systems encounter in these environments. The result is a collection of "algorithms" and "applications" organized into benchmark suites targeting telecommunications, networking, digital media, Java, automotive/industrial, consumer, and office equipment products. An additional suite of algorithms specifically targets the capabilities of 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers.

EEMBC's certification rules represent another break with the past. For a processor's scores to be published, the EEMBC Technology Center must execute benchmarks run by the manufacturer. EEMBC certification ensures that scores are repeatable, obtained fairly, and according to EEMBC's rules. Scores for devices that have been tested and certified can be searched from our Benchmark Search page.
