Please note that the documentation for software drivers etc. is included in the downloadable packages themselves.
Driver software is needed to provide an interface between the application itself and the underlying hardware. Different types of software packages are available for Fujitsu GDC's and these can be used within the limitations of different licenses.
Evaluation Software Package {E}
Evaluation software is used to test the (restricted) functionality of the software stack for a evaluation board. It includes an installation routine for the hardware, examples and brief documentation. The software is supplied as binary code for a dedicated hardware platform (examples are provided as source code). Evaluation software is provided 'as-is' i.e. without technical support and is intended for testing and demonstration purposes only.
Basic Software Package {B}
Basic software is used to develop and test the (restricted!) functionality of the software stack. It includes an installation routine for the hardware, examples and brief documentation. The software is as source code and a customer can modify this for his dedicated hardware platform. This software does not include 3D and texturing functionality.
Full Software Package {F}
Full software is used to develop and test the (fully-featured) functionality of the software stack. It includes an installation routine for the hardware, examples and brief documentation. The software is supplied as source code and can be modified by a customer for a dedicated hardware platform. This software includes 3D and texturing functionality.
Upgrade Package {U}
This software is intended to perform a functional upgrade.
