Getting Started with ADSP-BF548 EZ-KIT Lite 7-1
7 CREATING A BOOTABLE
APPLICATION
In this final chapter, we will step beyond executing programs under the
control of the VisualDSP++ Integrated Development and Debugging
Environment (IDDE) and learn how to create a program that runs when-
ever the EZ-KIT Lite is power cycled or reset. The chapter’s example
program builds on the previous examples to produce an application that
displays a slide show of BMP images with optional audio captions, con-
trolled from the EZ-KIT Lite keypad.
In the exercise, you will learn about the following concepts:
• Loader utility
• Flash Programmer utility
