Grammar Engine Introduces the Next Generation in Target Connectivity
There has never been more choices
in memory, sizes and footprints. Every time a memory
in an embedded design changes, a whole new target cable is needed for
the memory emulator. In addition, the custom solutions many vendors provide
are fragile, prone to damage and create noise. To solve these problems,
Grammar Engine has created a new high performance target connect system
for PromICE.
Cable Dock for PromICE |
|
|
The cable dock mounts directly
to PromICE and accepts memory cards. It is available in different
configurations for every PromICE model. All active components are
shielded by a solid aluminum housing. The dock acts as a 3 volt adapter
and automatically works with either 3 volt or 5 volt target power.
A red LED indicates when the target is under power. The cable dock
shields all the open connectors on PromICE, eliminating static damage
and bent pins. |
Memory Cards - Any Memory Footprint Overnight
The memory card is the heart of the system. It is a small circuit board
that can reroute any 60 signals to any position. Memory cards can be made
for any memory footprint, size or configuration. A custom memory card
can be produced in hours - and there is never a setup charge. The alternative
of custom printed circuit boards can take weeks (or months!) and cost
thousands of dollars. And when the memory footprint changes, simply order
a new memory card - all the other components of the system are reusable.
Because memory cards are unlimited in their flexibility,
they have a variety of other applications. They can rotate the cable to
connect to the target in a different orientation. They can correct mistakes
in board layout, and allow software development to proceed. They can even
be used to provide development tools before the actual parts are available.
Alptex Flex Probes and Extenders - Proven SMT Connectivity Solutions
The target connection is crucial to the operation of the development system.
Alptex flex probes are precision engineered to provide the finest quality
and highest performance available worldwide. SMT connections replace soldered
down memories or insert into Meritec sockets. And high quality extenders
are available in different lengths to fit the PromICE into any embedded
development environment.
