Features

Following are just a few of the features of the RTX166 Real-Time Kernel.

• RTX166 tasks are integrated into the C166 C Compiler language. The following example shows how tasks are declared.

  void display_task (void) _task_ 1
  {
  }
  

• Kernel routines are provided by a library that is automatically included by the linker. All you must do is specify the RTX166 directive.
• Interrupts may be used to trigger tasks or to start standard C166 interrupt functions.
• Several methods of inter-task communication are provided including: signals, mailboxes, and semaphores.
• RTX166 supports all C166 Compiler memory models.
• A CAN Library provides support for C167CR-compatible CAN-based microcontrollers.
• The Technical Support Knowledgebase will help you get started initializing the kernel and creating your first RTX166 program.
