What is the fastest way to multiply a number by 16 on the STC89C52?
Use repeated addition (add the number to itself 15 times), which avoids multiplication entirely
Use MUL AB instruction with B equals 16, which takes 48 clocks but is more reliable than shifts
Use software multiplication algorithm from Practical 26, which is more accurate than hardware
Perform four consecutive left shifts using RL A (4 machine cycles total), since each left shift multiplies by 2 and 2 to the power of 4 equals 16
