Overview
Product Details
The EVAL-AD2437B1NZ is an evaluation board to evaluate various peripherals of the AD2437 A2B (Audio Bus) transceiver. Refer to the datasheet/manual to get more details about the AD2437.
The EVAL-AD2437B1NZ is configured to be a Bus-Powered Sub (BPS) node. The EVAL-AD2437B1NZ can be connected to a Main node, Local-Powered Sub (LPS) or a Bus-Powered Sub (BPS) node. These evaluation boards are intended to be used with the SigmaStudio+® graphical development tool.
A PC host controls the AD2437 A2B main transceiver I2C/SPI signals over the USB-to- I2C/SPI bridge; USBi(EVAL-ADUSB2EB). This allows SigmaStudio+ to directly discover and control an A2B network as well as to read back registers and monitor performance.
The SigmaStudio+® graphical development tool is the programming, development, and tuning software for the SigmaDSP, A2B, and Sharc processors. Familiar audio processing blocks can be wired together as in a schematic, and the compiler generates DSP-ready code and a control surface for setting and tuning parameters. This tool allows engineers with no DSP code writing experience to easily implement a DSP into their design and yet is still powerful enough to satisfy the demands of experienced DSP designers. SigmaStudio+ links with both Analog Devices evaluation boards and production designs to provide full in-circuit real-time IC control.
SigmaStudio+ includes an extensive library of algorithms to perform audio processing such as filtering, mixing, and dynamics processing, as well as basic low-level DSP functions and control blocks. Advanced record-side processing algorithms such as Enhanced Stereo Capture and wind noise detection are included in the standard libraries. Plug-in algorithms from Analog Devices and 3rd party partners can be added to SigmaStudio+'s drag-and-drop library.
Along with its graphical DSP signal flow development, SigmaStudio+ also includes other features to speed up the design cycle from product concept to release. SigmaStudio+ includes tools for intuitively setting control registers, calculating tables of filter coefficients, visualizing filter magnitude and phase responses, generating C header files, and sequencing a series of controls to ease your transition from SigmaStudio+ to system implementation on your microcontroller.
