RTOS Supports Stellaris MCUs

Optimized for small-footprint and multi-tasking requirements, the RTX and TINY+ real-time operating systems now support Cortex-M3-based Stellaris microcontrollers from Luminary Micro. The CMX-RTX RTOS supports most 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit MCUs and DSPs and is said to exhibit the smallest footprint, fastest context switch times, and the lowest interrupt latency periods of any commercial RTOS available. Functionality includes support for tasks, messages, queues, system, events, memory, resource, semaphores, timers, interrupts, and optional kernel aware debugging. ROM requirements are approximately 1.5K minimum to 4.5K maximum. The CMX-Tiny+ real time multi-tasking operating system targets those processors that have a small amount of RAM, a minimum of 512 bytes and higher. It is based on a scaled down version of the CMX-RTX. ROM requirements are approximately 1K minimum to 3K maximum. CMX SYSTEMS INC., Jacksonville FL. (904) 880-1840.
