6 Software Support
6.1 BLACKSheep
The Core Module is delivered with a pre-flashed basic version of the BLACKSheep VDK multithreaded framework. It
contains a boot-loader for flashing the Core Module via the serial port.
Please consult the software development documents.
6.2 uClinux
The Core Module is fully supported by the open source platform at http://blackfin.uclinux.org. Since the Core
Modules are pre-flashed with BLACKSheep you have to flash uBoot first. To flash uBoot you can use the
BLACKSheep boot-loader.
To use the Ethernet functionality of the TCM-BF537 Core Modules you need the EXT-BF5xx-ETH-USB Blackfin
Extension Board.
