PhyCORE-BF537 Rapid Development Kit

Phycore BF537The phyCORE-BF537 is an insert-ready Single Board Computer (SBC) subassembly in miniature dimensions, populated with the Analog Devices ADSP-BF537 Blackfin® processor. The standard module runs at a 500 MHz internal clock speed and offers up to 128 MB external SDRAM and up to 4 MB external Flash.

Primary interfaces include a CAN bus and dual RS-232, as well as an SMSC LAN8700I 10/100BaseT Ethernet PHY and a PLX NET2272 USB transceiver. The phyCORE-BF537 operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and requires a single power supply voltage of 3.3V. The Analog Devices' VisualDSP++ Development and Debugging Environment (IDDE) enables easy generation of code and on-board download of user programs to the phyCORE-BF537 target hardware when mounted on the phyCORE-BF537 Carrier Board.
