XL101-ICE Universal Serial Bus Emulator for Analog Devices JTAG DSPs The XL101-ICE system is a Universal Serial Bus(USB)- based DSP emulator. This emulator provides a portable solutiondesigned to support Analog Devices (ADI) JTAG DSPs. The XL101- ICE emulator provides a simple, efficient method to connect the DSP emulator to today's desktop or laptop PCs via a USB 2.0 port.The simple plug-and-play architecture of USB allows the XL101-ICE to be automatically detected and configured by the host operating system. It can also be connected and disconnected from the host without opening the PC or turning off the power to the PC. XL101-ICE can support ADI ADSP2191,ADSP-BF533,ADSP-BF535,ADSP-21161~{#,~}ADSP-21990,ADSP- 21992,ADSP-TS101S,ADSP-21160 now,and it will support more ADI dsp soon Available software is ADI's VisualDSP++?development environment. The Price includes Airmail World Wide Postage ,software, Serial Cable and a usb 2.0 card.

Looking at the photo, am I seeing a USB type "A" connector on the pod? That's a USB no-no, because the only valid cables have an "A" connector on one end and "B" on the other. An "A" connector on a device would indicate ignorance of the USB standard, and suggest that that ignorance might continue into other parts of the product. And please use mixed case in your subject line. All upper case is both hard to read and will tend to trip spam detectors. |

If I'm reading that correctly, you've copied the code in the USB ICE in the ezkits, and have recreated the hardware as a standalone unit. I don't know about how the laws work in China, and IANAL, but I'm pretty sure that violates several in the US, so it won't be possible to export the unit to the US. |

Hi, i also thought about using the emulator part of an EZKIT for $ 150 to archieve the same result as somebody else using an emulator for $ 4000. The basic idea is to disable the processor in the EZKit and make a small adapter cable for the JTAG connection. I think i would not buy an emulator for $ 400 but an original EZKit for $ 150. And if we have somebody telling us how to avoid the artificial code size limits, even better. If i compare speed of the BF533 EZKit USB emulation with the APEX USB emulater, the EZKit seems to perform somewhat better. This is what customers like: Pay much less for something much better. Can you image how somebody feels, who bought the APEX for $ 4000 and realizes that a USB emulator can be a minor part of something that costs $ 150? Poor ADI. I would not think twice and use an EZKit as an emulator. Regards D.

I`ve copied below a message I sent to the Blackfin message board at (www.blackfin.org). It basically concerns using the EZ-KIT USB debug agent as an ICE. The advantage to this seems to be that it is legal as far as I can make out (apart from reverse engineering laws which I don`t think apply in the UK). I haven`t had a chance to try it as I only have one processor. If somebody could give it a go I would be very gratefull as I am about to design my own hardware and knowing I have a working emulator system would be a big bonus. ----------- Ok so looking at the 533 EZ-KIT it looks as tho the USB debug agent could be used on an external board. The setup appears to be that when you plug an emulator pod into the JTAG port it grounds pin 1 and switches (via analog switches U37 and U38) the JTAG signals going to the on board Blackfin from the on board agent to the external JTAG interface. Now I think it should be quite easy to get around this. 1.) Firstly you need to be able to pass the on board debug agent signals in and out of the JTAG port. To do this you can blob solder the relevent connections on the ADG774A which are fortunately rite next to each other so it should be dead easy. 2.) Then you need to disconnect the debug agent from the Blackfin chip that is on the EZ KIT. Again this is easy all you need to do is pull pin 15 on U38 high (not U37 as well because it only carries inputs to the onboard Blackfin) which will disable the analog switch. This mod is simple as pin 16 is 3.3v so you can simply cut the track to 15 and solder over to 16. This is kind of a permanent solution tho so you might want to rig up some kind of switch. Voila your $99 EZ-KIT has been turned into a $4000 ICE probe. Admittidly a slow one! but still. That`s the theory anyway I haven`t been able to try it yet as I only have the one processor board. If somebody want`s to give it a go I can walk through exactly what you would need to do. Probably the easiest thing is if somebody has two EZ kit`s. In which case all you would need is a 14pin ribbon cable and a couple of minutes soldering. Hope this is usefull. ---------------------- |

The only hitch is if VDSP is deliberately crippled when using the ezkit's ICE. > If i compare speed of the BF533 EZKit USB emulation with the APEX USB > emulater, the EZKit seems to perform somewhat better. I wonder where the slowness comes from? In principle the data path is the same. But I've always felt the ICE-handling code in VDSP was clumsy, particularly in the way it runs in the GUI thread, as if it was written for Win3.1. In my own code for doing lengthy stuff like this, I put it in a background thread that sends progress reports (messages) to the GUI thread and monitors an abort flag set by a dialog in the GUI thread. This separation of responsibility makes both pieces of code more self-contained and easier to maintain. The downloader code no longer looks like a state machine and it's easier to shut it down smoothly on user request (ie. hitting an abort button) while doing cleanup to keep from leaving the target hung. (I'm assuming this looking from the outside, because of the way the GUI locks one out and becomes unresponsive during transfers.) |
