srec_ti_txt - Texas Instruments ti-txt (MSP430) file format DESCRIPTION
The ti-TXT format is used by the Texas Instruments MSP430 familty programming adapter. The TI-TXT hex format supports 16-bit hexadecimal data. It consists of one or more sections, followed by the end-of-file indicator. Each section consistes of an at (@) sign followed a execution start address (in hexadecimal), and newline, and then data bytes (in hexadec- imal). The section address is followed by a newline. There are to be 16 data bytes per line, except for the last line in a section. The end-of-file indicator is the letter q followed by a newline. The end-of-file indicator mandatory. Size Multiplier In general, binary data will expand in sized by approximately 3.0 times when represented with this format. EXAMPLE
Here is an example ti-txt file taken from the reference below: @F000 31 40 00 03 B2 40 80 5A 20 01 D2 D3 22 00 D2 E3 21 00 3F 40 E8 FD 1F 83 FE 23 F9 3F @FFFE 00 F0 q SEE ALSO

srec_fairchild - Fairchild Fairbug file format DESCRIPTION
The Fairchild Fairbug format has 8-byte records. A file begins with an address record and ends with an end-of-file record. There are three record types in this file format. Address records are of the form +--+------+ |S | nnnn | indicating the address for the following data records. +--+------+ Data records are of the form +--+------------------+---+ |X | ffffffffffffffff | c | Each data record begins with an X and always contains+8-data-bytes.--The-ff+characters are hexadecimal byte values (8 bytes). Each data byte is represented by 2 hexadecimal characters. The c character is a hex digit being the the nibble-sum of the data bytes. A 1-digit hexadecimal checksum follows the data in each data record. The checksum represents, in hexadecimal notation, the sum of the binary equiva- lents of the 16 digits in the record; the half carry from the fourth bit is ignored. The programmer ignores any character (except for address characters and the asterisk character, which terminates the data transfer) between a checksum and the start character of the next data record. This space can be used for comments. The end-of-file record has the form +--+ |* | The last record consists of an asterisk only, which indicates the end-of file. Size Multiplier In general, binary data will expand in sized by approximately 2.4 times when represented with this format. EXAMPLE
Here is an example Fairchild Fairbug file. It contains the data "Hello, World[rq] to be loaded at address 0x1000. Notice how the last record is padded with 0xFF bytes. S1000 X48656C6C6F2C2057C X6F726C64210AFFFF3 * COPYRIGHT
