FIVE FREE Operating Systems for ARM Cortex M0 / M0+ CPUs

Embedded Environments Co. has announced the availability of five free Novos™ Operating Systems specifically developed for embedded systems that use ARM Cortex M0 / M0+ CPUs.

These CPUs need a Compact Micro RTOS and the aim of each Novos environment is to provide a software architecture to match the specific requirements of the application in hand – no more, and no less than what is needed.

Attempts to cut-down a traditional RTOS are very hard work and potentially result in undocumented, unsustainable solutions. A good analogy is trying to strip-down a … Read More → "FIVE FREE Operating Systems for ARM Cortex M0 / M0+ CPUs"
