scmRTOS

Breif Description

scmRTOS is tiny Real-Time Preemptive Operating System intended for use with Single-Chip Microcontrollers. scmRTOS is capable to run on tiny uCs with as small amount of RAM as 512 bytes. The RTOS is written on C++ and supports various platforms.

List of supported platforms for now:

  • MSP430
  • AVR
  • Blackfin
  • ARM7
  • Cortex-M0
  • Cortex-M3
  • Cortex-M4
  • STM8

Key Features

###Small ####Very small footprint:

  • from 512 bytes of RAM
  • from ~1K code

###Fast ####Minimal process switching latency:

  • 900 ns on Cortex-M4 @ 168 MHz
  • 1.8 us on Blackfin @ 200 MHz
  • 2.7 us on Cortex-M3 @ 72 MHz
  • 5 us on ARM7 @ 50 MHz
  • 38-42 us on AVR @ 8 MHz
  • 45-50 us on MSP430 @ 5 MHz
  • 18-20 us on STM8 @ 16 MHz

###Modern ####Written entirely on C++:

  • High reliability
  • Simplicity and ease-of-use

###Extensible ####Extensions mechanism at kernel level:

  • User defined extensions
  • Debug features
