The evaluation board is designed to be used in conjunction with the Visu-
®
alDSP++ development environment to test the capabilities of the
ADSP-BF518F Blackfin processors. The VisualDSP++ development envi-
ronment aids advanced application code development and debug, such as:
• Create, compile, assemble, and link application programs written
in C++, C, and ADSP-BF518F assembly
• Load, run, step, halt, and set breakpoints in application programs
• Read and write data and program memory
• Read and write core and peripheral registers
• Plot memory
Access to the ADSP-BF518F processor from a personal computer (PC) is
achieved through a USB port or an external JTAG emulator. The USB
interface of the standalone debug agent gives unrestricted access to the
ADSP-BF518F processor and evaluation board's peripherals. Analog
Devices JTAG emulators offer faster communication between the host PC
and target hardware. To learn more about Analog Devices emulators and
processor development tools, go to
The ADSP-BF518F EZ-Board provides example programs to demonstrate
the capabilities of the product.
The ADSP-BF518F EZ-Board installation is part of the Visu-
alDSP++ installation. As an EZ-KIT Lite, an EZ-Board is a
licensed product that offers an unrestricted evaluation license for
the first 90 days. For details about evaluation license restrictions
