Overview
The ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite® provides developers with a cost-effective method
for evaluation of the ADSP-BF537 Blackfin® Processor and its rich set of system peripherals, including the IEEE 802.3 10/100 Ethernet MAC and CAN 2.0B controller. A TCP/IP stack with integrated device driver and example code is provided in VisualDSP++® release 4.0. This evaluation kit was designed with an emphasis on modularity and expandability.
With this EZ-KIT Lite, users can learn more about Analog Devices ADSP-BF537 hardware and software development and quickly prototype applications.
The EZ-KIT Lite includes an ADSP-BF537 processor desktop evaluation board along with an evaluation suite of the VisualDSP++ development and debugging environment that is comprised of a C/C++ compiler, assembler, and linker. The kit also contains sample processor application programs, CE-approved power supply, a USB cable, both straight through and crossover Ethernet cables, a 3.5 mm male/male stereo cable, and a pair of stereo headphones.
Additionally, the ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite contains the National Instruments Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite (ELVIS) interface. This interface will allow using the oscilloscope, function generator, arbitrary waveform generator, DC voltage and current measurement modules, and digital I/O. NI ELVIS is a LabVIEW™–based design and prototype environment for university science and engineering laboratory curriculums. For more details, go to www.ni.com.
