uC/OS-II embedded RTOS
Thursday, September 4th, 2008I have just started playing around with the uC/OS-II RTOS written by Jean Labrosse, and hosted at Micrium. The best thing to do is buy the book he wrote, and it comes with a CD ROM with source code. However, you will also want to download the latest version from the web site, but you still need the book.
We all know that you need some sort of project as an excuse for trying out new code, but unfortunately, I don’t have such a project. This means that I am simply flailing around with some sort of hello world program for now.
I am currently working to get it running on the Atmel AVR family of processors. The OS takes a fair amount of RAM, so the Tiny chips are out. I will talk more about what I am trying to cram into a Tiny13 elsewhere in another post.
