Regulatory Compliance
The ADSP-BF538F EZ-KIT Lite is designed to be used solely in a labora-
tory environment. The board is not intended for use as a consumer end
product or as a portion of a consumer end product. The board is an open
system design which does not include a shielded enclosure and therefore
may cause interference to other electrical devices in close proximity. This
board should not be used in or near any medical equipment or RF devices.
The ADSP-BF538F EZ-KIT Lite has been certified to comply with the
essential requirements of the European EMC directive 89/336/EEC
amended by 93/68/EEC and therefore carries the “CE” mark.
The ADSP-BF538F EZ-KIT Lite has been appended to Analog Devices,
Inc. Technical Construction File (TCF) referenced ‘DSPTOOLS1’ dated
December 21, 1997 and was awarded CE Certification by an appointed
European Competent Body as listed below.
Technical Certificate No: Z600ANA1.028
Issued by: Technology International (Europe) Limited
60 Shrivenham Hundred Business Park
Shrivenham, Swindon, SN6 8TY, UK
The EZ-KIT Lite evaluation system contains ESD(electrostatic discharge)
sensitive devices. Electrostatic charges readily accumulate on the human
body and equipment and can discharge without detection. Permanent
damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy discharges. Proper
ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or
loss of functionality. Store unused EZ-KIT Lite boards in the protective
shipping package.

PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the ADSP-BF538F EZ-KIT Lite®, Analog
Devices, Inc. evaluation system for Blackfin®processors.
Blackfin processors embody a new type of embedded processor designed
specifically to meet the computational demands and power constraints of
today’s embedded audio, video, and communications applications. They
deliver breakthrough signal-processing performance and power efficiency
within a reduced instruction set computing (RISC) programming model.
Blackfin processors support a media instruction set computing (MISC)
architecture. This architecture is the natural merging of RISC, media
functions, and digital signal processing (DSP) characteristics. Blackfin
processors deliver signal-processing performance in a microprocessor-like
environment.
Based on the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA), Blackfin processors com-
bine a 32-bit RISC instruction set, dual 16-bit multiply accumulate
(MAC) DSP functionality, and 8-bit video processing performance that
had previously been the exclusive domain of very-long instruction word
(VLIW) media processors.
