Hello everyone, I am the Mixed Cuisine Master. Currently, many embedded devices run on RTOS and Linux systems. So, what are the differences between the two? 1. Multi-faceted Comparison 1. Real-time Performance Real-time performance ensures that tasks are completed within a specific time frame. An important metric for measuring the robustness of a real-time operating … Read more
Introduction If you find reading text tiring, you can directly search for the account name “Embedded Crafter” (same on Bilibili / Douyin / Xiaohongshu), where the video combines explanations with practical operations, making it much more efficient than just reading the documentation. Heartbeat Function If you are using FreeRTOS configured with STM32Cubemx, you need to … Read more
Intelligent Terminal Control System, “Mysterious Freeze” After Running for Several Hours We developed an intelligent gateway based on STM32 + FreeRTOS for a client, featuring: Multithreaded tasks: sensor data collection, CAN communication, UI refresh, log writing Using mutexes to protect shared resources (such as LCD, Flash, serial port) Priority design was reasonable (or so we … Read more
The previous article on FreeRTOS task scheduling – startup mentioned that the first task runs in an infinite loop mode. Clearly, having only one task running is not sufficient. So how does the running task yield control of the MCU to allow other tasks to run? One way is for the task to voluntarily yield … Read more
The Arduino Nano R4 was just released a few days ago (July 24), similar to the somewhat useless UNO R4, and it uses a 32-bit Renesas processor. Compared to the older R3 with the ATmega328P, its performance is significantly stronger. However, Arduino gives the impression that they are not very sincere; every upgrade feels like … Read more
STM32CubeMX 6.15.0: Easily Porting the ThreadX Ecosystem, Development Has Never Been So Smooth! 1. The version of STM32CubeMX used is 6.15.0 2. Declaration: This article takes STM32F407 as an example First, let’s take a look at which series are currently supported. We can see that the F series only supports F4 at a minimum, while … Read more
