PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the Blackfin® USB-LAN EZ-Extender®, Ana- log Devices, Inc. extension board to the EZ-KIT Lite® evaluation system for ADSP-BF533, ADSP-BF537, and ADSP-BF561 Blackfin processors.
The Blackfin processors are embedded processors that support a Media Instruction Set Computing (MISC) architecture. This architecture is the natural merging of RISC, media functions, and digital signal processing characteristics towards delivering signal processing performance in a microprocessor-like environment.
The EZ-KIT Lite and USB-LAN EZ-Extender are designed to be used in conjunction with the VisualDSP++® development environment. Visu- alDSP++ offers a powerful programming tool with new flexibility that significantly decreases the time required to port software code to a proces- sor, reducing time-to-market.
