What’s New in the Embedded Module for Blackfin
Processors
Version 2.0 of the Embedded Module for Blackfin Processors includes the
following new features:
• LabVIEW projects and the Project Explorer window—Help you
manage and implement the components of a Blackfin application.
• New Blackfin Project Wizard—Facilitates the creation of projects
for new and existing Blackfin VIs.
• VisualDSP++ 4.5 support—Incorporates new features and
enhancements to the VisualDSP++ tool chain.
• New Blackfin Processor support—Allows you to target the
ADSP-BF531, ADSP-BF532, ADSP-BF534, ADSP-BF536, and
ADSP-BF538 in addition to the ADSP-BF533 and ADSP-BF537.
• VI profiling—Displays the performance information for VIs and
functions in the Blackfin VIs you create to help you optimize Blackfin
applications. Profiling sends execution times for functions and VIs to
the host when the application terminates. If a Blackfin VI does not
terminate, use the BF Send Profile Data VI to trigger the sending of
profile information to the host.
• New device drivers—Provide support for the following:
– Two-wire interface (TWI)—VIs are located on the
Blackfin»Device»TWI palette.
– Micron color VGA sensor—VIs are located on the
Blackfin»Device»MT9V022 Camera palette.
• New VIs and Timed Loop options—Provide more task control and
timing capabilities. The Embedded Module for Blackfin Processors
now supports Semaphore VIs and a 1 MHz timing source in Timed
Loops.
• Static IP support—Enables a static IP address for the device. In the
Build Specifications Properties dialog box, make sure there is not
a checkmark in the Use DHCP checkbox on the TCP/IP tab of the
Application Information category to enable a static IP address.
