NAME

       srec_msbin - Windows CE Binary Image Data Format

DESCRIPTION

       This  format  is  the  output  of the Microsoft WinCE Platform Builder.  This is a binary (non‐text) file
       format.  File names in this format typically (ambiguously) use the .bin suffix.

   File Format
       Files in this format start with a header record.

       Then comes the data itself, organized into records.

       The file finishes with an execution start address record.  This is mandatory.

   File Header Record
       Data in this format start with an optional header containing the magic “B000FF\n”, followed by the  image
       start  (four  bytes, little endian) address and the span of the image (highest address - lowest address +
       1) (four bytes, little endian).  The file header does not have a checksum; it is therefore possible  that
       a corrupt file header will go undetected.

       ┌───────────┬────────────┬────────────┐

       │“B000FF\n” │ Address    │ Address    │
