K64 FreeRTOS + USB CDC using MCUXpresso/SDK

razed11 — Wed, 12 Sep 2018 16:21:41 GMT

A few years ago I developed an application using MQX with the K64 and it was a good experience. Recently I was asked to work on a different project and it used this setup but installing the tools and using the older version of KDS was quite painful (at least on a Mac) due to the lack of continuing support of MQX.

Now I'd like to use K64 with FreeRTOS and USB but I believe that MCUXpresso only has a driver for a baremetal implementation i.e. no RTOS. I don't understand USB at a low level but I suspect that there are real-time needs such as timeouts so using the baremetal with an RTOS will not be sufficient.

Maybe I'm incorrect and there is a FreeRTOS port. Recommendations?

Thanks.

Hi Kenny

K64 FreeRTOS USB-CDC is included in the uTasker project. Load the binary attached to a FRDM-K64F board,connect to USB (auto-install on Win 10), open a terminal emulator on the VCOM that appears and communicate with a FreeRTOS task.
Built with MCUXpresso and works on any Kinetis part with USB (supports up to 6 VCOM ports, optionally with USB-UART bridges and various composite configurations; industrially proven in many Kinetis products since 2012).

Mark

Hi Kenny

Just an information that MCUXpresso SDK has FreeRTOS support for USB cdc driver.

Please refer to the following demo on the SDK installation folder

Thanks Mark. We'll check it out. We're always on the lookout for reasonably priced tools for USB and TCP/IP.
