This document is a technical note on using Analog Devices DSPs, processors, and development tools. It provides an introduction to scripting in VisualDSP++®. Scripting is a powerful and flexible tool that can be used to extend and customize the built-in capabilities of the IDDE or to automate repetitive tasks. It is ideal for non-interactive scripting needs such as accessing DSP resources, performing repetitive tasks, or running full-blown regression tests.
