Sage Electronic Engineering Shows Off Latest Boot Customization Products At IDF

SAN FRANCISCO - Sept. 11, 2013 - PRLog -- Sage Electronic Engineering, the custom design provider specializing in complete open source solutions for the embedded community, is participating in the Intel Developer Forum this week, showing off its latest offerings. Attendees who stop by Booth 707 will see a humorous (if not corny) animation that illustrates Sage’s latest offerings, the SageBIOS™ Board Support Packages (BSP). With these specialized BSPs, customers can save time and money while taking advantage of cutting-edge advances in open source coding.

Each SageBIOS™ BSP is a specially configured, compiled and fully tested boot solution prepared for one of several processor boards. Thus developers who want to optimize their boot code and take advantage of open source benefits can start with a solid foundation upon which to build. The SageBIOS™ BSPs supply customized solutions by a team of developers who fully understand coreboot® and know how to integrate this open source code into products.

Prior to creating the BSPs, Sage developed SageBIOS™, a comprehensive coreboot® distribution for x86 architectures that boots firmware fast. Among the advantages of tapping into SageBIOS™ is the fact that the source code is made available and there are no royalties or licensing fees to pay.

Additionally, Sage developed the SmartProbe® and the Sage EDK, powerful development tools that simplify the design process. The SmartProbe® is a sophisticated JTAG development and debug probe, and the Sage EDK is an advanced graphical interface. Paired together, these tools give developers a complete system view for unmatched accessibility to the system under development.
