Phoenix Technologies BIOS

Founded in 1979, Phoenix Technologies is a Silicon Valley pioneer and the inventor of independent firmware. U.S. headquartered with a worldwide presence, Phoenix designs, develops, and secures firmware for a wide range of devices including computers, tablets, notebooks, laptops, servers, embedded systems and other advanced computing platforms. Phoenix offers products and services in different market segments, including both device and embedded firmware, that computer OEMs and system vendors all over the world rely on every day. In addition, Phoenix provides a cloud-based, firmware cybersecurity product targeted at the enterprise market.

During 1983 and the first part of 1984 Phoenix Technologies, then in Boston, Massachusetts, created the first commercially available IBM PC compatible ROM Bios. Licensing of this firmware interface allowed a computer to run the same operating system and the same applications as the IBM PC, and enabled the rapid expansion of the IBM PC compatible computer industry.

Phoenix Bioses Phoenix Technologies Ltd is an American company that designs, develops and supports core system software for personal computers and other computing devices. The company's products - commonly referred to as BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) or firmware - support and enable the compatibility, connectivity, security and management of the various components and technologies used in such devices. Phoenix Technologies and IBM developed the El Torito standard.

Phoenix provides Bios solutions and licensing based on Phoenix Technologies products for PC's, motherboards, embedded, IA and all other digital devices. Phoenix provides engineering resources to adapt the Phoenix products to your requirements and to perform the development of your custom BIOS features. Phoenix can provide an SDK based on Phoenix BIOS source code and a dedicated tool set that allows you to make modifications to the BIOS yourself. SDK's are available in both UEFI and Classic BIOS variants.

Phoenix Technologies is a technology company that has been historically known for its contributions to the personal computer (PC) industry. Phoenix Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1979. The company played a significant role in the early PC industry by developing system BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) firmware. BIOS is essential software that initializes and provides communication between the operating system and the computer hardware during the boot process.

BIOS Development: Phoenix Technologies gained prominence for its development of BIOS firmware for a wide range of PC manufacturers. The company's BIOS software was widely used in computers to facilitate the hardware initialization process and enable the operating system to start.
UEFI Technology: In addition to traditional BIOS development, Phoenix Technologies transitioned its focus to UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) technology. UEFI is a modern and more advanced firmware interface that succeeds traditional BIOS. UEFI offers enhanced features, improved security, and greater flexibility.
Intellectual Property and Licensing: Phoenix Technologies holds various patents and intellectual property related to BIOS and UEFI technologies. The company has been involved in licensing its technology to other manufacturers and entities in the industry.
