Hi,
1) Why NXP doesn't provide direct support to FreeRTOS and only Amazon FreeRTOS?
Amazon Web Services provide more than 100 cloud hosted services that are used by millions of customers, and in all industry sectors. A growing number of AWS services are designed for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, that is, the connection and management of internet connected devices.
Device manufacturers connect their MCU based devices to the cloud to innovate both their products and their business models. However, it takes time to build the security and connectivity components necessary for this connectivity into the device's software before that innovation can start. A significant proportion of connected MCU devices already run the FreeRTOS kernel, so Amazon chose to provide the FreeRTOS project with the resources necessary to extend their offering into fully integrated security and connectivity libraries, and ensure those libraries can be developed and supported long into the future. That enables FreeRTOS developers to spend less time on library integration, and more time on innovation.
To ensure longevity, Amazon also ensures the wider FreeRTOS ecosystem is strong, so all FreeRTOS kernel users benefit, not just those who connect their devices to the internet.
2) My application needs only premptive scheduler. Is there any premetive scheduler supported by NXP for MKE14F512VLL16R and LPC54605J256BD100?
We only support Amazon FreeRTOS for these devices.
3) Amazon FreeRTOS has additional connectivity and security features for IOT based devices that might increase the footprint of this RTOS compared to FreeRTOS kernel. Is there any way to minimize or exclude these libraries in order to optimize the footprint or it is inherent in Amazon FreeRTOS?
We only support Amazon FreeRTOS for these devices.
4) FreeRTOS doesn't show compatibility for MKE14F512VLL16R and LPC54605J256BD100 microcontrollers
Are they really supported by FreeRTOS. If yes please provide any working example for reference
For MKE14F512VLL16R and LPC54605J256BD100 only Amazon FreeRTOS.
For the devices mentioned in the link, you need to download LPCOpen,
https://www.nxp.com/support/developer-resources/software-development-tools/lpc-developer-resources-/...
LPCOpen libraries are RTOS agnostic and can be used with a simple control loop. Examples are also included in each software download package for use with FreeRTOS.
Have a nice day!
Sol
