These sections will guide you through a series of steps from configuring development environment to running FreeRTOS examples using the WIZnet's ethernet products.
- Development environment configuration
- Hardware requirements
- FreeRTOS example structure
- FreeRTOS example testing
- How to use port directory
To test the FreeRTOS examples, the development environment must be configured to use Raspberry Pi Pico, W5100S-EVB-Pico or W5500-EVB-Pico.
The FreeRTOS examples were tested by configuring the development environment for Windows. Please refer to the '9.2. Building on MS Windows' section of 'Getting started with Raspberry Pi Pico' document below and configure accordingly.
Visual Studio Code was used during development and testing of FreeRTOS examples, the guide document in each directory was prepared also base on development with Visual Studio Code. Please refer to corresponding document.
The FreeRTOS examples use Raspberry Pi Pico and WIZnet Ethernet HAT - ethernet I/O module built on WIZnet's W5100S ethernet chip, W5100S-EVB-Pico - ethernet I/O module built on RP2040 and WIZnet's W5100S ethernet chip or W5500-EVB-Pico - ethernet I/O module built on RP2040 and WIZnet's W5500 ethernet chip.
Examples are available at 'RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/examples/' directory. As of now, following examples are provided.
Note that ioLibrary_Driver, FreeRTOS-Kernel, mbedtls, pico-sdk are needed to run FreeRTOS examples.
- ioLibrary_Driver library is applicable to WIZnet's W5x00 ethernet chip.
- FreeRTOS-Kernel is a real-time operating system kernel for embedded devices that contains FreeRTOS kernel source/header files and kernel ports only.
- mbedtls library supports additional algorithms and support related to SSL and TLS connections.
- pico-sdk is made available by Pico to enable developers to build software applications for the Pico platform.
- pico-extras has additional libraries that are not yet ready for inclusion the Pico SDK proper, or are just useful but don't necessarily belong in the Pico SDK.
Libraries are located in the 'RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/libraries/' directory.
If you want to modify the code that MCU-dependent and use a MCU other than RP2040, you can modify it in the RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/port/ directory.
port is located in the 'RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/port/' directory.
- Download
If the FreeRTOS examples are cloned, the library set as a submodule is an empty directory. Therefore, if you want to download the library set as a submodule together, clone the FreeRTOS examples with the following Git command.
/* Change directory */
// change to the directory to clone
cd [user path]
// e.g.
cd D:/RP2040
/* Clone */
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Wiznet/RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C.gitWith Visual Studio Code, the library set as a submodule is automatically downloaded, so it doesn't matter whether the library set as a submodule is an empty directory or not, so refer to it.
- Setup ethetnet chip
Setup the ethernet chip in 'CMakeLists.txt' in 'RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/' directory according to the evaluation board to be used referring to the following.
- WIZnet Ethernet HAT : W5100S
- W5100S-EVB-Pico : W5100S
- W5500-EVB-Pico : W5500
For example, when using WIZnet Ethernet HAT or W5100S-EVB-Pico :
# Set ethernet chip
set(WIZNET_CHIP W5100S)When using W5500-EVB-Pico :
# Set ethernet chip
set(WIZNET_CHIP W5500)- Test
Please refer to 'README.md' in each example directory to find detail guide for testing FreeRTOS examples.
We moved the MCU dependent code to the port directory. The tree of port is shown below.

If you want to change things related to SPI, such as the SPI port number and SPI read/write function, or GPIO port number and function related to interrupt or use a different MCU without using the RP2040, you need to change the code in the 'RP2040-HAT-FREERTOS-C/port/ioLibrary_Driver/' directory. Here is information about functions.
