PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the ADSP-21262 EZ-KIT Lite
®
, Analog
Devices (ADI) evaluation system for SHARC
®
processors.
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 SHARC the bandwidth for sustained high-speed
computations. SHARC represents today’s de facto standard for float-
ing-point DSP targeted for premium audio applications.
The evaluation system is designed to be used in conjunction with the
Vi+
®
development environment to test the capabilities of the
ADSP-21262 SHARC processors. The Vi+ 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-21262 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
Access to the ADSP-21262 processor from a personal computer (PC) is
achieved through a USB port or an optional JTAG emulator. The USB
interface gives unrestricted access to the ADSP-21262 processor and the
