Product Description
|
Gopher is a search tool that readily enables design engineers to select a microcontroller that exactly fits their requirements.
All major microcontroller manufacturers' specifications have been standardized and are therefore searchable in an uncomplicated and consistent manner, taking only a few minutes of an engineer's time to indicate their product specifications.
We care about your creative design time and strive to maximize it We take pride in helping to minimize the drudgery involved in selecting complex electrical components while maximizing the appropriateness of parts selected to meet all of your design requirements as economically as possible. We increase your company's profits by helping you find the most "perfect fit" in microcontrollers - thereby decreasing the end cost of products you design without sacrificing functionality. Searching for the Elusive “Best Fit” There are literally thousands and thousands of microcontrollers on the market today. Finding the best MCU for your next project can be a daunting task if specifications, functionality, package size, power consumption, communications, etc. must all be met. Vendor-supplied parametric search tools barely begin to help in this endeavor. They only go so far as they are greatly limited in their search capabilities since their parametric data is sadly lacking in standard expression. If time were not a concern for the Design Engineer, one could use the vendor-supplied parametric search tools along with examining the thousands of datasheets they provide (some containing more than a thousand pages each) to find the one ultimate part ~ “the best fit”. In reality, Design Engineers have only enough time to find a part that will functionally do the job but will never know if it is the optimum one or even close to it. This is where Gopher excels · Gopher typically has more than two to ten times the searchable parametric data than is available from vendor-supplied search tools. · Gopher can search parametric data not only from a single vendor but from any combination/number of selected vendors simultaneously. · Gopher automatically eliminates parts which do not fit the functional requirements. It also eliminates parts that have the functional capability but not the number of I/O pins to simultaneously support those functions. Interacting with the Gopher program is simple but the results are all-inclusive. Imagine entering your requirements into the Gopher program and then using the returned search results to pick a part that best fits your requirements without even looking at a datasheet—and the whole process being completed within just a few minutes!
