While real-time operating system (RTOS) software is becoming a key feature in the out-of-box support for embedded systems built around MCUs, the overall concept of RTOS is still muddy for many design engineers. So, here is the when and why RTOS solutions are needed in embedded designs. But, before that, what is RTOS anyway, especially […]
IoT MCUs will support Microsoft Azure RTOS
Renesas Electronics Corporation announced the ability to simplify the device-to-cloud experience for IoT developers. Renesas’ extensive secure embedded design experience will be combined with easy and seamless out-of-the-box support for Microsoft Azure RTOS across Renesas’ microcontroller (MCU) and microprocessor (MPU) portfolio. This collaboration will help deliver a complete chip-to-cloud IoT solution based on Renesas’ intelligent […]
Trace visualization tool includes FreeRTOS stack analysis, interval details
Percepio announces the release of Tracealyzer version 4.3. The new version has new features for state machine analysis, stack usage analysis for Amazon FreeRTOS and major performance improvements when working with large traces. “This is a major step in the Tracealyzer evolution,” says Percepio CEO Dr. Johan Kraft. “For instance, the new Interval Details view […]
Real-time vs. a standard operating system & How to choose an RTOS
Most MCUs do not have operating systems. In the “olden days,” most embedded systems had MCUs that ran a program repeatedly and did not have much if any, human interference. However, the line between MCUs and processors is blurring. MCUs have General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) which are often attached to one or several sensors as […]
IoT platform libraries now comply with FIPS 140-2 cryptographic standards
Express Logic has partnered with one of the world’s leading security labs atsec information security to execute the design and implementation of the X-Ware IoT Platform’s NetX Crypto libraries for compliance with Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) 140-2 cryptographic standards. The certification authority for this effort, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), issued the […]
32-bit microcontroller family now supports Amazon FreeRTOS
Infineon Technologies AG now allows for easy and secured use of new generation sensors featuring new AI functionalities running on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help facilitate connections required for cloud services and artificial intelligence, in particular. Also to that end, the company is releasing a connected development board with WiFI and EtherCAT connectivity for industrial […]
Trace visualization tool now supports On Time RTOS-32
Percepio announces that Tracealyzer 4 support for On-Time RTOS-32, in addition to the already supported Amazon FreeRTOS, Keil RTX5, Micrium µC/OS-III and SafeRTOS/OpenRTOS. “Tracealyzer 4 is a massive improvement over previous versions. We have collaborated with On Time for more than five years and we are excited to now bring the next generation in RTOS […]
i.MX 8 and 8X application processors get secure virtualization services
Green Hills Software, the worldwide leader in high assurance operating systems, today announced the availability of its INTEGRITY Multivisor secure virtualization for the NXP Semiconductors i.MX 8 and 8X families of applications processors. For the first time, manufacturers of critical automotive and industrial systems can confidently run consumer operating systems in secure partitions alongside critical software applications […]
An Open Source RTOS for IoT
An operating system (OS) is software that supports essential computer functions by managing software and hardware in a computer system. An embedded OS is typically tailored for a specific system and is usually as small as is necessary to do its job. You can find OSes in smartphones, routers, smart watches, game consoles, Alexa/Google Home, […]
Open-source GPS/GNSS-aided inertial navigation software stack handles precise navigation apps
ACEINNA announces OpenIMU – a first of its kind professionally supported, open-source GPS/GNSS-aided inertial navigation software stack for low-cost precise navigation applications. Whether you are developing autonomously guided vehicles for industrial applications, autonomous cars, factory or industrial robots, drones, ROVs, any kind of smart machine which needs to move – fast or slow, on land, in […]
