Hi,

I want to generate a HEX file for an EPROM in PROTUES.
Is there any software to do so for me?

I am not certain what you are asking, nor familiar with the Protues.
I am assuming the Protues is a certain model of chip programmer??

To generate a HEX file, you'll need the original source code for the
project and then run this through an Assembler or Compiler. This
process will generate the hex file.

There are several "flavors" of HEX files.
Some common ones are Intel Hex, Motorola S-Record, and Tektronics
format.

The structure of all three are actually very similar.
The file is plain text, HEX representations of the storage address
inside the EPROM, the data, and usually a checksum appended to the end
of each line.

If you already have one "flavor" and simply need to convert it so
something the Proteus can understand (and really, if it can't
understand Intel Hex, what good is it??), there are several programs
that can do the conversion for you. I have one from Avocet Systems
circa 1990 that works wonders!

If you don't have a hex file, you'll basically need to research
embedded software programming topics first. Good luck. -mpm
