WHAT IS FIRMWARE?

In computing, firmware is software that is embedded in a hardware device. It is often provided on flash ROMs or as a binary image file that can be uploaded onto existing hardware by a user. Electronic Design & Development Corp. (ED2) wants to be your firmware expert. Our company has expertise in several types of firmware and devices:

Micro-controller

Microprocessor

FPGA (field programmable gate arrays)

IBM Architecture

Custom VHDL Peripherals Creation

Devices include:

· Microblaze and PowerPC Implementation Xilinx FPGA’s,

· Worked with, Altera, Lattice (Quartis tools, ISP tools)

· Worked with Freescale DSP MC56F8367

· Developed with Microchip, C77, F877, F84 and more

· Compact Flash Interface (Xilinx)

· Analog Devices Blackfin DSP

Compiler Experience:

· Visual Studio

· Code Warrior

· SDK Studio

· CCS

· Xilinx

· Rabbit

· Crosscore

ED2 has written literally thousands of lines of code for these types of devices. We would like to assist you in developing code. Our large library of code will save you valuable development time. Why reinvent the wheel - simply buy it from us. If we don’t have the code you want we will make it for you. We will understand what you want. Our code writers understand electronics as well as code. This is what makes us superior to most code writers. We understand firmware circuitry and theory so we can work with nearly any device that you may want to program.

ED2‘s code is always labeled so your engineers can follow the code. Labeling is an important step when writing code. I have found that most programmers do not label code as well as they should. They think in their heads that they will remember what the code does. Well we have found that in big projects and long projects or 6 months later one forgets what the code does. So it is our policy to label code as much as possible. Ed2 code is available to be licensed or purchased.

Thank You for considering ED2.
