Software and Reference Designs

Analog Devices (ADI) and its partners have a broad range of offerings that let you explore, evaluate and design with our processors. From device drivers to complete reference designs, Analog Devices can provide you with what you need to develop your next product.

Quick Navigation:



Starter Kits

Starter Kits provides you with an EZ-KIT Lite evaluation kit and EZ-Extenders daughter card(s), along with a Software Development Kit (SDK) that makes getting started easy and shortens the learning curve.

Kit Name Processor Description
Audio Starter Kit Blackfin Evaluation board, Multimedia SDK, documentation
Multimedia Starter Kit Blackfin Evaluation board, Multimedia SDK, documentation
Media Player Starter Kit Blackfin Evaluation board, Media player SDK, documentation

Software Development Kits (SDK)

Software Development Kits (SDK): contains example software, source code, device drivers, algorithms, utilities information and application notes that allow you to develop processor applications. The software can be used as a framework, or as examples of how to use certain aspects and peripherals, in conjunction with an ADI processor.

Reference Designs

Reference Designs help jump start your design. They include comprehensive software suites with documented application programming interfaces (APIs) running on application-specific evaluation boards. The easy to use APIs enable customization and control of core system functions, letting you focus on adding value through product differentiation.

Third Party Reference Designs are hardware/software reference designs developed by our 3rd party network-integrate standalone products.
