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 system was designed with an emphasis on modularity and expandability. Go to www.analog.com for more details on expansion products. With this EZ-KIT Lite, users can learn more about Analog Devices’ ADSP-BF537 hardware and software development and quickly prototype applications.

     Additionally, the ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite contains the National Instruments Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Suite (ELVIS) interface. This interface will allow using the DC voltage and current measurement modules, oscilloscope and bode analyzer modules, function generator, arbitrary waveform generator and digital I/O. NI ELVIS is a LabVIEW-based design and prototype environment for university science and engineering laboratories curriculum. For more details, go to www.ni.com

     The EZ-KIT Lite includes an ADSP-BF537 Processor desktop evaluation board along with an evaluation suite of the VisualDSP++® development and debugging environment with the C/C++ compiler, assembler, and linker. It also includes sample processor application programs, CE-approved power supply, a USB cable, both straight through and cross-over Ethernet cables, a 3.5mm stereo cable, and a pair of stereo headphones.
