Driver Development for USB/PCI: WinDriver

Home Driver Development Tools
 
Market Leading Driver Development Toolkit
For the Development of High Performance,
High Quality User-Mode Device Drivers.

Overview

WinDriver™ product line supports any USB/PCI device, regardless of its silicon vendor, and enables you to focus on your driver's added-value functionality, instead of on the operating system internals.

Complete support for USB, PCI, PCI Express, CardBus, CompactPCI, ISA, PMC, PCI-X, PCI-104 and PCMCIA.

Enabling driver development for Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP/XP Embedded/Server 2003/Vista,
Windows CE.NET, Windows Mobile 6.0, Linux and Solaris.

No DDK knowledge, or kernel-level development is required!


Featured Customer Application Story
Microsoft XBOX

Microsoft's XBOX development team, designers of the ultimate gaming console, chose Jungo’s leading WinDriver USB for Windows® to develop its testing applications for the validation process of Xbox 360 USB accessories and for testing during the development of the various input devices.

Features

  • Immediate Hardware Access
    Test your hardware through a graphical user-mode application, without having to write a line of code.

  • Generation of hardware-specific access code
    WinDriver generates a skeletal driver code, customized for the user's hardware.

  • Field-proven quality
    WinDriver's technology enables you to concentrate on your core business and successfully create first-rate drivers without having to invest redundant resources in driver development from scratch.

  • User-mode programming
    WinDriver's architecture enables driver development in the user mode, while maintaining kernel-mode performance.

  • Samples
    Many samples which can be used as a starting point for your own driver. Special samples for various PCI / USB chip vendors, such as PLX,  Altera, Cypress, Microchip, Philips,  Silicon Laboratories, QuickLogic, STMicroelectronics, Texas Instruments, Xilinx, Agere and PLDA.

  • Debugging
    Included graphical Debug Monitor to monitor kernel level activity throughout the driver development process.

  • Multiple operating system support
    WinDriver product line supports Windows 98 / Me / 2000 / XP / XP Embedded / Server 2003, Vista, Windows NT4, Windows CE / Mobile 6.0, Linux and Solaris.

  • Cross operating system capabilities
    The same driver will run under all supported operating systems without any code modifications.

  • Performance optimization
    Use WinDriver's Kernel PlugIn technology to develop your driver in the user-mode - then run performance critical sections of it in the Kernel Mode (Ring 0) to achieve optimal performance.

  • 64-bit Support
    Allow utilizing the additional bandwidth provided by 64-bit hardware and enable 64-bit data transfer on x86 platforms running 32-bit operating systems. Drivers developed with WinDriver will attain significantly better performance results than drivers written with the DDK or other driver development tools that do not support this feature.

  • FPGA Access
    Access, control and program FPGA chips via the PCI bus. Enhanced support for FPGA vendors including Altera and Xilinx is included.

  • WHQL certifiable driver
    Digitally sign your Windows driver by submitting it to Microsoft痴 WHQL testing.

  • Complete .NET Framework Support
    Easily incorporate WinDriver's C# or VB.NET code into your existing .NET application using the powerful object oriented managed extensions for C++ library.
