GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Advantiv® E VA L -ADV7850 video evaluation board (AVEB)
is a low cost solution for evaluating the performance of the
ADV7850 HDMI transceiver.
The evaluation board contains a Blackfin® ADSP-BF524 processor
for system control. The evaluation board includes software
(firmware) that provides a serial command interface to control
the various features and functions of the board.

TERMINOLOGY
Source
A source outputs digital audio/video over a DVI/HDMI,
component, VGA, or CVBS interface. This can be a DVD/Bluray player, set-top box, game console, or any other device with
these outputs.
Sink
A sink accepts video through a DVI/HDMI interface. In the
context of this user guide, sink nearly always refers to a display
with DVI/HDMI input.
Repeater
With respect to this evaluation board, a repeater refers to the
software that runs on the ADSP-BF524 and implements the link
between a source and sink.

EVALUATION BOARD HARDWARE
EVALUATION BOARD USAGE
The evaluation board can be connected as shown in Figure 2.
An HDCP license is required to purchase this board.
The RS-232 command line interface operates at a 115,200 baud
rate with eight data bits, no parity bit, one stop bit, and no flow
control. Typing help via RS-232 lists the commands that can be
used to control the board, as well as the version of firmware and
the build date.
The repeater software starts upon power-up, allowing an HDMI
sink to receive content from an HDMI/HDCP source soon after it
is connected.
There are three main ways to control the board:
• Commands via RS-232
• Repeater software via RS-232
• Advantiv video evaluation software (AV ES)
Commands via RS-232
This mode uses the RS-232 command line interface. The
ADSP-BF524 powers up to a known reset state and then outputs
a prompt. At this point, commands can be entered. Typing help
shows a list of available commands. Using the appropriate
commands, the user can read/write registers in the ADV7850.
All registers are at their reset values.
It is possible to stop the repeater software in this mode by issuing a
stoprep command via the RS-232. To restart the repeater software
issue a startrep command via the RS-232.
Repeater Software via RS-232
This mode uses the RS-232 command line interface to control the
repeater software and to direct reads and writes to the ADV7850
registers. The repeater software outputs messages via RS-232 as
events, such as encryption, formats, sink, or source changes, occur.
Registers can still be read/written from the command line, but
anything that is written to a register can be overwritten by the
repeater software if it is running.
In this mode, there are additional commands from the repeater
itself. All repeater commands are in the rep xxx format, where
xxx is the repeater command. Issue a rep help command to view a
list of the available repeater commands. These commands provide
information about the state of the repeater, source, and sink.
AVES
AVES i s a Windows®-based application that runs on a PC and
allows the user to read/write registers in the
software also displays the individual bit fields for each register
and allows the user to modify these individual bit fields. The
software supports RS-232, USB, and I

HEADERS
This evaluation board has multiple 0.1 inch headers that
connect to the digital audio/video signals (as well as some
control signals). This provides users with easy access and
maximum flexibility when evaluating devices.

EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
UPGRADING THE FIRMWARE
The software (firmware) on the evaluation board can be
upgraded using the standard Blackfin development tools.
• VisualDSP++ 5.0 Update 8
• JTAG debugger for Blackfin processors (HPUSB-ICE or
ICE-100B) connected to the JTAG connector (J7)
Using these tools, you can connect the evaluation board to the
ADSP-BF524 processor, run a script, and program the SPI flash
memory device (U10).
Most evaluation boards for Blackfin processors are shipped with
the Das U-Boot boot loader firmware, and you can upgrade the
firmware using only an RS-232 cable and software. If you see the
following output after resetting the board or applying power, your
evaluation board has U-Boot:
U-Boot 2010.06 (ADI-2010R1-RC2) (Jan 12 2011
- 15:53:34)

Hit any key to stop autoboot:
If your evaluation board has U-Boot, you can use the following
steps to upgrade the application firmware of your board (if you
determine that this is necessary). These instructions assume
that you are using the latest version of Tera Term for Windows
(which is free to download and use), but any RS-232 software
with YMODEM upload capability should also work.
1. After you see the hit any key to stop autoboot prompt,
press a key during the countdown. You should then see a
prompt, bfin >.
2. At the prompt, type the following command:
sf probe 0:1
You should see the following:

4. In Tera Ter m , under File, click Trans fe r and then
YMODEM, and select Send…
5. Select the application firmware (for example, E VA L -
ADV7850_v1p0_app.bin) and click Open.
6. You should see the YMODEM send dialog box progress
quickly from 0% to 100%. If the software stalls at Packet 1
or Packet 2 for a few seconds, you may need to cancel and
retry. It is possible that you may need to repeat Step 3
through Step 5 a few times to accomplish the transfer. After
the transfer is complete, you should see the following:
CCxyzModem - CRC mode,
0(SOH)/215(STX)/0(CAN) packets, 5 retries

7. At the prompt, type the following command to erase the
application area of the SPI flash memory:
sf erase 0x60000 0xa0000
You should then see the following output:

8. At the prompt, type the following command to program
the application area of the SPI flash memory:
sf write $(loadaddr) 0x60000 $(filesize)
You should then see the following output:
bfin>
9. At this point, if you reset your board and allow the
countdown to complete, U-Boot should launch the
application firmware that was just programmed.
