FreeRTOS Configuration Let us continue Bob’s open-source FreeRTOS series. All RTOS require configuration. In this article, Bob will discuss the configuration parameters available when setting up FreeRTOS. Every real-time operating system (RTOS) I have integrated into embedded systems required configuration. The first was RSX-11, developed by David Cutler for Digital Equipment’s PDP-11 (Figure 1). (David … Read more
