Drivers
In addition to the microprocessor, the platform consists of multiple peripheral devices. The operating system may need drivers in order to use to use these devices. The development tools include a large number of drivers, both as part of the platform-independent code and as part of the supplied BSPs. If a shipped driver is not compatible, it is necessary to implement a custom-built driver as part of the BSP (SRC\DRIVERS). To expedite the build process, the most suitable driver shipped with the software is used as a base. Table 5–7 provides a list of directories that contain the majority of drivers included in Windows Embedded CE.
