left speechmark We are very pleased with our purchase of a Corelis Boundary Scanning System as it has proven to be an invaluable tool in identifying faults in boards supplied by our Contract Manufacturers. A recent problem with a batch of printed circuit boards was quickly identified and isolated by the system which has saved my Company over £50k. We are now planning to place Corelis Boundary Scanners with all of our CM partners. right speechmark

Developing with Windows Embedded CE 6.0 - A Practical Guide

The economic and technical benefits of moving to Windows CE are compelling, but for a development team used to working without an OS, or with a commercial RTOS, or with no 32-bit experience this can represent a steep and daunting learning curve, full of unfamiliar concepts and jargon.

Microsoft Embedded Partner Direct Insight is well experienced in guiding inexperienced engineers along the Windows CE path. Starting with a broad-based examination of what Windows Embedded is (and isn't), covering target microcontroller choices and hardware development matters, this course quickly homes in on the all-important issues underlying platform development, and using real examples provides a comprehensive technical overview of the development process.

Using Microsoft tools, including Platform Builder and Visual Studio 2005, in conjunction with a real PXA270-based development kit, this live-demonstration based course does not use simulators or x86 hardware and is therefore representative of a real development scenario.

Course Content

  • Windows Embedded fundamentals: when to choose Windows CE. Other options - Windows XPe, Linux, Commercial RTOS

  • Hardware compatibility and design issues: choosing a microcontroller

  • Tool requirements and options

  • Building your own Windows CE OS design in Platform Builder (PB)
    • Using the device wizard to create a customized Windows CE OS Design from a BSP
    • Adding and removing Windows CE catalogue features
    • Building the OS Design
    • Downloading OS design to the device (Ethernet, serial)

  • Device side - Getting the OS design running on the device (bootloaders - eboot, redboot etc)

  • Debugging Techniques
    • PB debugger
    • Windows CE kernel debugger
    • PB debugger remote tools using ActiveSync
    • JTAG debuggers, eXDI connection
    • Burning final image into FLASH and configuring for auto boot
  • Manufacturing issues

  • Developing your own Application for a Windows CE Device
    • Application Development tools VS 2005, EVC++
    • Creating an SDK from the OS Design for use with above
    • Connecting tools to device with ActiveSync
    • Concept of managed code .NET Compact Framework
