How to Bring Quality IEEE1394 Embedded Products to Market Fast
When developing products based on complex bus systems, use of the correct development tools is the crucial factor in achieving quality and reducing time to market. FireSpy400 is such a tool and its abilities go way beyond those of a pure IEEE1394 analyzer. Using FireSpy400 as an example, the requirements for an IEEE1394 development tool and the options such a tool can offer a developer are explained in this article.
