Unibrain's ubCore 1394b drivers receive the
Microsoft sign for Vista 32 and 64 bit
Unibrain continues playing a major
role in adoption rate of the 1394b standard
Unibrain has just released Windows Vista digitally signed 1394b
(Firewire-800) drivers for both 32 bit and 64 bit editions (under
the Microsoft certification
Windows Logo Program for third party kernel drivers).
OEMs and System Manufacturers can now incorporate and bundle
the ubCore™
drivers in their 1394b equipped systems and devices which are
applying for the WHQL Vista Logo.
The Unibrain driver stack, already in use by major motherboard
manufacturers, is a set of low-level drivers with a top-down layered structure
that provides the physical interface to various 1394 devices. It includes the
following unique advantageous features:
- Full and native 1394b support at 800 Mbps.
- Support for future firewire bus speeds at S1600 and S3200.
- Full 1394b CAT5 (100Mbps) and POF (200Mbps) support.
- Complete 1394a and 1394b SBP2 disk support.
- Complete 1394a and 1394b IIDC cameras support.
The ubCore™ combined with
FireAPI™ (Unibrain's 1394 Development Toolkit),
provides software developers with a powerful set of functions and tools,
in kernel or user mode, to help integrate 1394 technology into products.
It is the only true 1394b driver stack with support for all
major Windows Operating Systems: 2000/XP/2003 Server and Vista.
Support for the Windows CE platform is planned for later this
year.
