Wittenstein High Integrity Systems has launched a fully integrated version of its OpenRTOS kernel with ‘out of the box’ USB and FAT file system capability. The real time OS is designed to run efficiently on the new generation of small and medium 32-bit microcontrollers, with the initial release supporting the NXP LPC2xxx, ARM 7 and Freescale Coldfire V2 architectures. The product shortens development time for applications using USB or flash memory considerably.
OpenRTOS CONNECT is a high performance middleware platform based on, and compatible with, FreeRTOS, the world’s favourite open-source microcontroller RTOS, which has a large, rapidly growing embedded developer community. Users are able control costs, developing projects on the free kernel and migrating to OpenRTOS later in the development cycle. OpenRTOS is commercially licensed and supported, easy to use, memory efficient and optimised for 32-bit controllers.

OpenRTOS CONNECT delivers a full featured FAT 12/16/32 based, DOS compatible file system designed for embedded applications requiring PC compatible media, for example SD and other common flash based devices. A lightweight file system version is also available for configurations with limited resources.

The USB host, device and class drivers support all four USB transfer types and enables the development of embedded applications fully compliant with USB 1.1 and USB 2.0.
Speaking about the upcoming launch, David Brook commented, “‘out of the box’ has become a cliché, but in this case it’s a valid statement. The product just works. It’s simple. And it’s well supported. Whether you’re designing a data logger, domestic appliance or industrial control system it will be right, first time.”
