AD DSP's

[hifimaker]

There is a lot of discussion about Analog Devices DSP's across various threads. AD has some very interesting Web tutorials on their website for DSp development.

ADI Has a great website for the Blackfin. The page has a number of tutorials, codes examples, and beginner's guides to DSP's. Besure to checkout their SDK for use with VisualDSP++.

Nice learning resources.

The AD DSPs are fairly easy to use, though with the AD1940, once you get into the guts of programming it, you find that the documentation is a bit thin.

I ended up spending a lot of time working out where the registers are, and the relationships between them.

If yoe are considering using the AD1940/41, feel free to drop me a line, as I have C code that I use for user programmable crossover, parametric, real time delay etc.

There is some data on the last version of it here...
