Hi @omkardixit
Short answer is no, it's not free - you can fee information here: MQX-V5: Buy
I've worked with it quite a bit and don't see the advantage of MQX over FreeRTOS, unless you don't have in house software skills and are going to pay a consultant to create your application for you.

Hi @omkardixit ,
What is your level of understanding Reat Time Operating Systems? If you have a good understanding of them, FreeRTOS (or MQX or whatever) shouldn't be too difficult to pick up.
If you are a beginner to MCU RTOS's, might I suggest this presentation: Everything You Need to Know about RTOSs in 30 Minutes followed by this book: A practical introduction to real-time systems for undergraduate engineering The book is quite long but very complete.
If you are familiar with MCU RTOS's and are looking for FreeRTOS examples, I would suggest:
Let me know if this is helpful.
I've shared my generic Kinetis FreeRTOS LED_task code in this post - a three byte string is sent to set a specific LED to a specific state (on, off or flash) and it can be read back. It gets a bit complex to understand as if I am sending a message from a task, I reply but if the message comes from an ISR, I don't reply (I don't want an ISR waiting around for the RTOS ). Let me know if that makes sense to you.
