48 MHz Cortex-M0 — what that means for throughput
The 48 MHz clock rate is the ceiling for this core. The 2-stage pipeline and single-cycle multiply support real-time control loops at a few kHz, but there is no FPU for heavy DSP or floating-point work.
Memory budget: 64 KB Flash, 16 KB RAM
The 16 KB SRAM will constrain data buffers — plan for a few hundred bytes of stack, a couple of KB for communication buffers, and the rest for application variables.
