Description: No operation is performed by a NOP instruction. It is typically used for timing delays.

One NOP causes a 1-cycle delay: with a 1 µs cycle time, five NOPs would therefore cause a 5 µs delay. Program execution continues with the instruction immediately following the NOP. Only the PC is affected. At least three NOP instructions should follow a STOP or IDLE instruction.
