In SX Microcontrollers, SX/B Compiler and SX-Key Tool, Coriolis wrote:

Im with Guenther, SX compatibility mode is only for execution compatibility with a certain flavor of PICs, and as such should only be used when using an SX in a drop in placement of a pre-existing PIC application using time critical operations. This is clearly not the case because you are creating a new program in SX/B. A very good reason for not using code compatibility is power reduction, since turbo mode executes at 4x the speed of compatibility mode, it is better to use a resonator at 1/4 the frequency, the power savings of 4 according to P=cv^2, or the power consumed is equal to the speed of operation times the square of the voltage.
