PREFACE

Thank you for purchasing the ADSP-21364 EZ-KIT Lite
Devices, Inc. evaluation system for SHARC
The SHARC processors are based on a 32-bit super Harvard architecture
that includes a unique memory architecture comprised of two large
on-chip, dual-ported SRAM blocks coupled with a sophisticated IO pro-
cessor, which gives a SHARC processor the bandwidth for sustained
high-speed computations. SHARC processors represents today's de facto
standard for floating-point processor targeted for premium audio
applications.
The evaluation system is designed to be used in conjunction with the
VisualDSP++
ADSP-21364 SHARC processors. The VisualDSP++ development envi-
ronment gives you the ability to perform advanced application code
development and debug, such as:
• Create, compile, assemble, and link application programs written
in C++, C, and ADSP-21364 assembly
• Load, run, step, halt, and set breakpoints in application program
• Read and write data and program memory
• Read and write core and peripheral registers
• Plot memory
