LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 22, 2002

Datalight today announced a new line of essential FlashFX(R) flash memory management software products that allow developers to choose the most cost-effective solution based on their specific design needs.

The FlashFX line of products includes the FlashFX Design Ready Kit, the FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit, and the FlashFX Universal Porting Kit. The Design Ready Kit is available now, and the FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit will ship in late-November 2002 followed closely by the Universal Porting Kit.

"The FlashFX software family has grown to meet the specific needs of the widest possible range of designers who are using flash memory in their embedded or portable device projects," said Roy Sherrill, Datalight CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "No matter which flash device, operating system operating system (OS)

Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs.
, or processor these designers chose, Datalight now has a cost-effective FlashFX product that will simplify the process, cut development time, and increase the value of their flash designs."

FlashFX Design Ready Kit provides low-cost solution for specific

platform.

The FlashFX Design Ready Kit includes a binary device driver for preconfigured Set up ahead of time. It implies that the device or software application has been modified to suit the customer or situation.

In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. , CPU CPU

, and flash memory. The driver fully integrates into the development environment within minutes to establish a FlashFX disk, which can then be formatted and used like a standard disk drive. With a complete money-back guarantee, the Design Ready Kit is a low-cost, no-risk way to evaluate FlashFX software for a specific design and establish feasibility for using resident flash memory for both code and data storage.

The FlashFX Design Ready Kit is available now direct from Datalight and their resellers. Suggested retail price is USD USD

FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit provides a portable solution

for single OS environment.

The FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit is portable to any processor and most flash memory technologies, and is tailored to a specific operating system environment. This kit provides the greatest value in advanced functionality and breadth of application.

Designers install the software directly into their familiar tool-set, make modifications such as tailoring the device driver to schedule garbage collection A software routine that searches memory for areas of inactive data and instructions in order to reclaim that space for the general memory pool (the heap). Operating systems may or may not provide this feature. , or specific hardware functions like changing flash interface modules or adding window mapping routines, and recompile To compile a program again. A program is recompiled after a change has been made to it in order to test and run the revised version. Programs are recompiled many times during the course of development and maintenance. See compile. . The FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit is Microsoft(R) Windows(R) CETK tested. Datalight is committed to releasing additional OS Adaptation Kits for other popular operating systems.

The FlashFX OS-Specific Adaptation Kit for Microsoft(R) Windows(R)CE.NET is scheduled for release in late-November 2002. Suggested retail price for this is USD $995, with buyout and per unit licensing options also available.

FlashFX Universal Porting Kit has everything to create flash

memory management solution for any environment.

The FlashFX Universal Porting Kit is a source code library of all Datalight Design Ready Kits and OS-Specific Adaptation Kits in ANSI C, which provides complete portability to most processors, flash devices or operating systems, including proprietary operating systems. The kit gives designers the flexibility to change or upgrade components or software within their design without time-consuming reprogramming Reprogramming refers to erasure and remodeling of epigenetic marks, such as DNA methylation, during mammalian development[1]. After fertilization some cells of the newly formed embryo migrate to the germinal ridge and will eventually become the germ cells  of the flash device. The FlashFX Universal Porting Kit dramatically reduces the complexity of programming flash devices, maximizes the utilization and performance of these expensive devices, and extends the value of any design through future product life cycles and hardware upgrades.

The FlashFX Universal Porting Kit will be available following the release of the first OS-Adaptation Kit. New Universal Porting Kits will be released as new OS-Specific Adaptation Kits become available. Please contact Datalight directly for pricing information.
