AudibleReady® SDK
Firmware for Digital Audio Players
www.audible.com

Audible.com approached Base2 Software Design to provide expertise in porting an existing SDK to embedded platforms. We made the resulting SDK more embedded-friendly by using a C-only interface, using as little ROM and RAM as possible and by providing different SDK releases as necessary for the targeted processor families. Some of the processors include

· SigmaTel
· ARM7 and ARM9 (various targets, tools, and OSes)
· TI DSP
· ColdFire
· SH-4

In addition to engineering services, Base2 also managed software releases, bug fixes and change requests, and customer support. Base2 also provided expertise in researching capabilities and suitability of other processor families for use with the AudibleReady SDK. The AudibleReady SDK is now being used in several devices currently on the market like the Apple iPod Shuffle.
