Embedded microprocessor systems are becoming more and more widespread in techniques and machinery. In this paper, is made a description of a custom built system based on Analog Devices Blackfin processor family (ADSP-BF531/2/3). The system operates under Linux, which gives it flexibility and universality as an embedded solution for several of tasks. Some typical applications of such a device are: processing of audio and video signals, Ethernet connectivity (routers, switches gateways, access points and embedded servers), specialized systems for monitoring and control and so on. The involved hardware provides essential computation power at reasonable cost, which makes the system applicable in scenarios with high requirements. It’s up to the software what the exact functions of the embedded device will be. The use of an operating system is a great benefit for it, allowing high level control of the available resources.
