68000 machine language compiler this program is using modern design- derived from the silicon structure, means, one microcode table, and one FSM (finite state machine). the assembler syntax is simplified to keep the program less complicated. for instance, there are seperate mnemonics for byte, word and long, for each instruction.
PIC flash memory programmer this program is specialized for the 18F24J10- which can have upto 16K flash memory. if memory cells do not change during a session, only the cells with difference are re-flashed. there is even an option to save state via unique project ID.
HITACHI font converter this tool is used to generate font data from PDF! the hitachi LCD controller is standard for most dot matrix LCDs. using this software, the same font can be used for LED matrix, including japanese characters, which would require additional effort for manual enconding.
here a scrollable 8x8 map using VISUAL BASIC. it can now use GDI, so for many applications, C++ usage is not required anymore. the information from MSDN is that, typically, with range check set to "on", BASIC is two times slower than C++. however, the range check can also be switched off- then the programs become less safe, but faster.
