## NAME

srec_needham - Needham EMP-series programmer ASCII file format

## DESCRIPTION

This format is understood by Needham Electronics’ EMP-series programmers. See www.needhams.com/winman.pdf for more information. (This format is very similar to the ASCII-Hex format, but without the ˆB and ˆC guard characters.)

Each data byte is represented as 2 hexadecimal characters, and is separated by white space from all other data bytes.

The address for data bytes is set by using a sequence of $Annnn, characters, where nnnn is the 8-character ascii representation of the address. The comma is required. There is no need for an address record unless there are gaps. Implicitly, the file starts a address 0 if no address is set before the first data byte.

### 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 ascii-hex file. It contains the data “Hello, World[rq] to be loaded at address 0x1000.

$A1000,
48 65 6C 6C 6F 2C 20 57 6F 72 6C 64 0A
