Embedded BIOS 2000 is the leading firmware for embedded x86 designs, with over 700 OEM-customisable configuration parameters, support for embedded operating systems, and support for major OS and hardware initiatives.
Embedded BIOS addresses the entire lifecycle of embedded products, from board bring-up, configuration prototyping, testing with system diagnostics, and product manufacturing to in-field diagnostics and software reload.
Features include: an integrated debugger; console redirection; highly configurable POST; manufacturing mode; ROM, RAM and Flash file systems; support for a host of industry initiatives; and much more.
Embedded BIOS supports industry-standard operating systems that run on PC-compatible hardware, including the full spectrum of Windows, Linux and real-time operating systems.
Embedded BIOS 2000 serves as the hardware abstraction layer for Firmbase, General Software s high-availability operating environment.
Firmbase uses patented technology to run 32bit firmware applications concurrently with the foreground operating system.
It provides a multithreaded API to 32bit applications running transparently to the other software in the system, including the BIOS and operating system.
These programs - called Firmware Applications - are developed using standard, 32bit Windows Portable Executable (PE) development tools.
