1.2 Purpose of This Manual
The ADSP-SC589 EZ-Board Evaluation System Manual provides instruc- tions for installing the
product hardware (board). The text describes operation and configuration of the board components
and provides guide- lines for running your own code on the ADSP-SC589 EZ-Board. Finally, a
schematic and a bill of materials are provided for reference.
1.3 Intended Audience
The primary audience for this manual is a programmer who is familiar with an ARM Cortex-A5-
based processor core and a SHARC-based processor core.
The ADSP-SC58x family of SHARC+ processors is based on the ARM Cortex-A5/SHARC processor
core with floating-point unit and integrated SRAM memory, flash memory, accelerators, and
peripherals.
The applicable documentation for programming the ARM Cortex-A5 processor core includes:
Cortex-A5 Devices Generic User Guide
CoreSight ETM-A5 Technical Reference Manual
Cortex-A5 Technical Reference Manual
For additional information on this Analog Devices processor, see the ADSP-SC58x SHARC+
Processor Hardware Reference. This document describes the ARM Cortex-A5 processor core and
memory architecture used on the ADSP-SC58x processor, but does not provide detailed programming
information for the ARM core.
