VisualAudio Designer Audio Development Environment

Analog Devices VisualAudio Designer Audio Development Environment is a PC-based graphical audio design tool with real-time tuning support, code generation engine with optimised routing and memory allocation, out-of-the-box support for Analog Devices' EZ-KIT Lite, working in conjunction with VisualDSP++. VisualAudio generates product-ready code that is optimized for MIPS and memory usage as well as an extensible optimized library of audio processing modules for Blackfin and SHARC Processors. Please visit the VisualAudio page of this web site for full details.

VisualDSP++ Integrated Development Environment

Release 5.0

Analog Devices VisualDSP++® is an easy-to-install and easy-to-use integrated software development and debugging environment (IDDE). Efficiently manage projects from start to finish from within a single interface. Move quickly and easily between editing, building, and debugging activities. Key features include the native C/C++ compiler, advanced graphical plotting tools, statistical profiling, and the VisualDSP++ Kernel (VDK). Other features include assembler, linker, libraries, splitter, cycle-accurate and functional-accurate compiled simulators and emulator support.

Key Features of Release 5.0

  • Core file support that stores the contents of all registers and memory at any point in time, and allows state restoration at a later time
  • Custom board support that allows you to customize register windows and reset values, and to also display the custom register windows in the IDDE
  • Support for MISRA-C:2004 C programming guidelines for checking compliance with Motor Industry Software Reliability Association Rules
  • License and validation enhancements that allow MAC address-based validation and the use of a floating license from a remote server for periods of time
