Distributor Digi-Key has teamed with Embedded Developer LLC, the embedded industry's research and compare site, to offer a sales and distribution network for development tools.
Called Digi-Key Tools Xpress, the network will allow engineers to compare tools based on features and performance before making a purchase.
"Having access to the broadest array of development tools, emulators, debuggers and evaluation kits is critical to the design engineering community,” said Digi-Key v-p of semiconductor product, Dave Doherty.

This comparison capability was developed by Embedded Developer and is modelled on its signature device-compare process.
