Thanx in advance.

Intel Hex 32 Format

The extended 32-bit address hex format is similar to the hex 8 format,
except that the extended linear address record is output also to establish
the upper 16 bits of the data address. This is mainly used for 16-bit core
devices since their addressable program memory exceeds 64 kbytes.

Each data record begins with a 9-character prefix and ends with a
2-character checksum. Each record has the following format:

:BBAAAATTHHHH....HHHCC
where:

BB A two digit hexadecimal byte count representing the number of data bytes
that will appear on the line.

AAAA A four digit hexadecimal address representing the starting address of
the data record.

TT A two digit record type:

00 - Data record
01 - End of File record
02 - Segment address record
04 - Linear address record

HH A two digit hexadecimal data byte, presented in low byte/high byte
combinations.

CC A two digit hexadecimal checksum that is the two's complement of
the sum of all preceding bytes in the record.
 

Re: intel hex conversion!!!!

I would like to have info. on conversion on intel hex to binary.
 

Re: intel hex conversion

The links I posted will give you just that. Well, the info is in hex, but convering hex to binary is trivial.

google for hex2bin

Intel hex file will be in ASCII format only. if you need, you can convert to bin with hex2bin which can be downloaded from keil website or google for it.
