JK microsystems, Inc., an industry leader in embedded controllers, to offer a turnkey IrDA-Data protocol evaluation/development platform that will work with any WINDOWS or DOS based PC.

The Flashlite 386Ex embedded single board computer from JK microsystems is a DOS based controller ideal for IrDA evaluation. Developers can verify IrDA protocol execution for any IrDA protocol against IrDA enabled target devices or third party IrDA enabled devices.

The IrDA development system includes the Flashlite 386Ex SBC, hardware, software and utilities to build and upload DOS executable programs to the controller.

"JK microsystems is excited to have our Flashlite 386Ex controller chosen by Embednet as a platform for IrDA protocol evaluation and development," stated Brian Bennett, Sales & Marketing Director for the company.

With the complete kit available from Embednet, you can easily develop, compile, execute, and debug IrDA based applications that are written in ANSI C or C++ using the included compiler. Additionally, since IrPro is CPU independent, you can use this environment to develop or evaluate your IrDA application before your target CPU hardware is ready.

"I was pleased to see IrPro integrate and operate on the 386Ex system without any issues. This integration will provide a time saving and cost effect means for anyone wanting to evaluate or develop IrDA-Data protocol enabled applications", stated Bob Gastineau, President of Embednet.
