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

The VisualDSP++ development and debugging
environment, along with the advanced on-board USB-
based Debug Agent interface that operates up to
12 Mbits/second, enables users to perform standard
debugging functions (such as read and write
memory, read and write registers, load and execute
executables, set and clear breakpoints, and single-
step assembly, C, and C++ source code). The
evaluation versions of the included software tools are
limited to use with the EZ-KIT Lite. For faster and
unrestricted debugging, a family of JTAG emulators
and full versions of VisualDSP++ are available
separately from Analog Devices.
Analog Devices has EZ-Extender™ products (sold
separately) that plug into the Expansion Interface
of the ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite for additional
functionality. The Blackfin EZ-Extender daughter board
allows developers to connect to a number of Analog
Devices High Speed Converter (HSC) evaluation
boards, the OV6630 OmniVision camera evaluation
board, and an external LCD display. The Blackfin
USB-LAN EZ-Extender™ daughter board contains a
USB 2.0 interface and 10/100 Ethernet MAC. The
Blackfin A-V EZ-Extender™ daughter board contains
advanced audio and video circuitry, as well as
connectors allowing connection to three camera
sensor evaluation boards (Kodak, Mircron, and
OmniVision) and a Flat Panel Display (FPD) module.
CROSSCORE Development Tools
The ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite is part of the Analog
Devices CROSSCORE®Tools product line, which is
composed of a comprehensive set of development
tools providing engineers with easier and more robust
methods for developing and optimizing systems.
The CROSSCORE components include:
• VisualDSP++ development and
debugging environment
• EZ-KIT Lite evaluation kits
• EZ-Extender daughter boards
• Emulators
The easy-to-use VisualDSP++ integrated develop-
ment environment speeds development, debugging,
and deployment while shrinking product development
cycles and improving time to market. The EZ-KIT Lite
evaluation kits provide an easy way to investigate
the performance of the Analog Devices family of
embedded processors and DSPs. EZ-Extender daugh-
ter boards give developers access and ability to
connect various peripherals from Analog Devices and
third parties to the expansion interface of the EZ-KIT
Lite evaluation kits. Emulators are available for both
PCI and USB host platforms for rapid on-chip debug-
ging. Analog Devices is committed to continuous
expansion of leading-edge development solutions for
design engineers everywhere.
