Mouser Electronics, the global authorised distributor with the newest semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT Mini Evaluation Board from Analog Devices. The ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT Mini Evaluation Board aids in the development and testing of the 32-bit, 400 MHz ADSP-BF706 Blackfin DSP that delivers 800 MMACS of processing power at less than 100 mW. This mini evaluation board contains all the communication interfaces and external connections needed for DSP audio application design, including an Arduino-compatible interface.       

The Analog Devices’ ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT Mini Evaluation Board, available from Mouser Electronics, offers a complete, small-form-factor, low-cost starter platform for evaluation of the ADSP-BF706 Blackfin DSP processor. The ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT features on-board, high-quality audio I/O, 1,160 KBytes of on-chip internal SRAM, 4 MBytes of quad SPI Flash and connections for EPPI0, SPORT, SPI, I2C, and general-purpose I/O (GPIOs). The USB bus-powered board also features an on-board JTAG/SWD debug port through a separate USB interface, and an ADAU1761 SigmaDSP low power stereo audio codec. The ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT board also accommodates the installation of 0.1-inch stackable headers for interfacing with Arduino-compatible shields that are compliant with the Arduino Uno R3 shields interface.       

When used with the Analog Devices CrossCore Embedded Studio (CCES), the ADSP-BF706 EZ-KIT Mini Evaluation Board offers advanced application code development and real-time debug capabilities. The CCES development environment allows designers to create, compile, assemble, and link application programs written in C, C++, and assembly code. The software package also includes DSP Concepts’ graphical-based Audio Weaver software tool that provides a full-featured audio module library with efficient code generation and profiling.       

The Mini Evaluation Board and ADSP-BF706 Blackfin processor targets power-sensitive embedded applications from portable audio to sound processing and effects.
