| Data I/O(R) Suggests New DataMapper File Management Tool Data I/O Corporation has announced the availability of DataMapper, a Windows application that is capable of translating and merging customer data files from the most popular file formats into one binary output file. This output file can then be used with TaskLink and Data I/O device programmers to rapidly and accurately process production programming jobs. Most embedded applications are designed for cellular handsets, PDAs, consumer electronics and media devices and are based on feature-rich, flexible designs. A single device may be programmed with different data files to create a custom feature set in the finished product. In addition, selective re-programming capability is often desirable for field upgrade and service activity. These rich applications are the product of many designers who work together, often as part of an extended design team. One effort produces operating system code, another may produce application code, and still another may produce test code or data tables. All of these source files may be produced in different formats, respective of the design tool used to produce the file. Until now, the effort to re-format and combine various files into a "production ready" single image file has been a burden for many design teams. DataMapper makes this cumbersome task easy - with the ability to browse, select, and insert data files into one final 'image' file that is programming ready. DataMapper is a Windows compatible desktop application intended for design and test engineers. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
