Overview

ubCore™, is the first and only driver suite that fully supports the 1394b standard. It is highly recommended by Texas Instruments as the ideal software companion for their 1394b chipset.

ubCore™ is a set of low-level drivers with a top-down layered structure that provides the physical interface to various 1394 devices and includes the following advantageous features:

  • Full 1394b support at 800Mbps.
  • Support for future standard speeds (S1600 and S3200).
  • Full 1394b CAT5 (100/400 Mbps) and POF (200 Mbps) support.
  • Full 1394b GOF support at 800 Mbps speeds.
  • Complete 1394a and 1394b SBP2 disk support.
  • Complete support of 1394a and 1394b IIDC compliant cameras.
  • Comprehensive set of tools and applications.
  • Full Plug & Play support for Windows 2000/XP/2003-8 Server/Vista/7/8/10.
  • Support for 64 bit Windows Operating Systems (AMD64 and Intel EM64t CPUs).
  • Microsoft signed drivers for Windows Vista/7/8 32 bit and 64 bit.
  • User friendly installation wizard.

ubCore™ combined with FireAPI™ (Unibrain’s 1394 Development Toolkit), provides to the software developer a powerful set of functions and tools that enables him to integrate 1394 technology into his product.

Features

ubCore™ drivers come into 2 “flavors” (versions): ‘ubCore’ and ‘ubCore Pro‘.
ubCore™ is oriented for end users who want to utilize the full Firewire-800 speed of their 1394b devices (webcams, firewire hard drives, networking) and it is available as a free download, while ubCore Pro™ is oriented for professional users and FireAPI™ SDK customers.
ubCore Pro™ is not free; a FireAPI license is required for it’s full features and applications to be activated.
The same license is also required so that applications developed with FireAPI SDK, will execute in runtime systems.
