MSDOS is the world-wide standard 16-bit PC-compatible
operating system. MSDOS is widely used in disk-based
embedded systems where full DOS compatibility is needed.
This solution is ideal for those who make use of MSDOS
specific device drivers or any case where 100% compatibility
is necessary. MSDOS is ideally optimized for embedded
applications.
MSDOS can be loaded from traditional disk drives or
from solid-state disks. It provides compatibility with
other systems through removable media, such as 3 1/2" floppy
disks, which have an ideal form factor for embedded
systems.
MSDOS 5.0 retains compatibility with previous versions
of DOS. It has memory management that allows most of
MSDOS to be loaded into extended memory on computers
with 386 or higher processors. Also, device drivers
and TSRs can be loaded above 640K on computers with
386 or higher processors. It is smaller in size and
less expensive than MSDOS 6.22, yet has all of the
features needed for embedded systems.
Micro/sys can supply MSDOS 5.0 preinstalled in flash
or on solid-state disk on many embedded PC models. |
