A CREATING A TCP/IP

APPLICATION

This appendix is an overview of the theory behind the TCP/IP framework

provided by VisualDSP++. Examples 2 and 3 (on

respectively) of this book build upon the information presented in the fol-

lowing sections.

You will learn about the following concepts:

• VisualDSP++ Kernel (VDK) operating system

• Sockets API

TCP/IP Framework

The Ethernet Media Access Control (MAC) device of the ADSP-BF537

processor provides a 10/100-Mbits/s Ethernet interface between the

Media-Independent Interface (MII) and the processor's peripheral system.

You can create an embedded program, taking advantage of the Ethernet

MAC and using the TCP/IP stack support provided by VisualDSP++.

TCP/IP is a communication protocol that allows applications to transfer

data regardless of their underlying communication media. To implement

a TCP/IP application, several different elements are required. For an

EZ-KIT Lite system, the TCP/IP application framework consists of:
