Bluetooth EZ-Extender Manual ix
PREFACE
Thank you for purchasing the Bluetooth EZ-Extender
®
, Analog
Devices, Inc. daughter board to a Blackfin
®
evaluation system with the
new expansion interface II (such as the ADSP-BF518F EZ-Board
®
) or the
older STAMP interface (such as the ADSP-BF537 EZ-KIT Lite
®
).
Blackfin processors are embedded processors that support a Media
Instruction Set Computing (MISC) architecture. This architecture is the
natural merging of RISC, media functions, and digital signal processing
characteristics towards delivering signal processing performance in a
microprocessor-like environment.
The Bluetooth EZ-Extender is designed to be used in conjunction with an
EZ-KIT Lite or an EZ-Board running the open source Linux operating
system (OS). For more information about running Linux OS on a Black-
fin processor, go to http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/.
Product Overview
The Bluetooth EZ-Extender is a separately sold daughter board that plugs
onto an EZ-KIT Lite supporting the STAMP interface or
an EZ-Board/EZ-Kit Lite supporting the expansion interface II connec-
tor. The extender board isolates the low-level configuration and
communication tasks of integrating Bluetooth and radio frequency (RF)
wireless technologies in your Blackfin board designs.
