Included ICE-1000 emulator

Question

Hi, 
 I'd like to purchase the SC589 audio development kit and I wanted to know if the ICE-1000 emulator can then be reused to target other DSPs in the SHARC family if needed(BGA assembly no available/extra cost,better price/part etc.)(the 176LQFP ADSP-21571 will be the actual DSP used on the custom prototype) provided I already have a full license for CCES? 
 Also how portable is the code for SC589 across the family? 
 From what I managed to look at and read in the HW manuals ,those parts are quite similar (excluding the Cortex-A5,frequency range of core clock). 
 Can I port an audio firmware designed for SC589 to ADSP-21571 easily ? 
 My goal for now is to have some basic crossover(Linkwitz-Riley) working using the IIR/FIR accelerators and move from there. 
 Thank you.

Hi, 
 Please find the details for your queries here. 
 Question 1 >> Customer wanted to know if the ICE-1000 emulator can be reused to target other DSPs in the SHARC family? Answer >> The ICE-1000/ICE-2000 should be fully compatible with all Blackfin and SHARC parts. The Analog Devices ICE-1000 and ICE-2000 emulators facilitate the creation, test, and debug of advanced applications on Analog Devices Processors and DSPs. 
 Please refer the below FAQ to know about ICE-1000/2000. FAQ: Introducing the ADZS-ICE-1000 and ADZS-ICE-2000 Emulators ez.analog.com/.../introducing-the-adzs-ice-1000-and-adzs-ice-2000-emulators 
 Also, you can refer the below linked "ICE-1000/ICE-2000 Emulator User&rsquo;s Guide" for more details: www.analog.com/.../ICE_emu_1000_2000_rev_manual.pdf 
 If you want to use ICE-1000/ICE-2000 emulator with custom board, can you please confirm that it complies with the JTAG Technical Reference Guide EE-68, which is available online at the following location: https://www.analog.com/ee68 
 Question 2 >> Can I port an audio firmware designed for SC589 to ADSP-21571 easily? My goal for now is to have some basic crossover (Linkwitz-Riley) working using the IIR/FIR accelerators and move from there. 
 Answer >> Regarding code portability, Software for SAHRC+ core is portable cross all SHARC processors if not considering peripherals. That is consistent with our daily practice, prototyping SHARC+ software on one processor and porting it to production processors later. Software for ARM core may be not portable to SHARC+ core but SHARC+ core software is mostly portable. 
 Please let us know whether your intention is only on porting SHARC+ core code.
