Texas Instruments found the combination of FlashFX Tera intelligent flash manager and Reliance Edge fault-tolerant embedded file system to be the right choice for their TI-Nspire family. FlashFX lets the application software written by OEM’s interface seamlessly to the flash memory as though it were a simple hard drive, reducing overall design complexity. The software platform makes second sourcing of flash parts simple because of the wide array of flash technologies FlashFX supports as well as its ability to automatically detect the flash part in the system. Reliance Edge is specifically designed to eliminate the risk of data corruption in embedded devices that operate in environments where power interruption may occur. Tuxera worked with TI to integrate Reliance Edge and FlashFX into their TI-Nspire family of products. The responsiveness of Tuxera support was a critical element in TI’s choice of FlashFX Tera and Reliance Edge.

The TI-Nspire CAS learning solution, integrated with FlashFX Tera and Reliance Edge, establishes one of the educational industry’s most highly integrated and optimized solutions for teachers and students in secondary school. Not only will FlashFX Tera and Reliance Edge help TI to better streamline their manufacturing process, but the power it brings should benefit students with different learning styles and increase comprehension by supporting interactive math and science concepts presented in multiple representations.
