| SCIOPTA Real-Time Operating System for RENESAS M16C |
|
Today Litronic AG is announcing the immediate availability of the SCIOPTA Real-Time Operating System for the RENESAS M16C microcontroller family.
SCIOPTA M16C is entirely written in assembler which results in a very high performance and a low memory footprint. The code size of 3.6 – 7.5 kbytes allows to use it also in pure single-chip applications. Supported controllers include specifically the M16C/60 series.
The pre-emptive multitasking real-time kernel supports the standard SCIOPTA message-based architecture. SCIOPTA M16C is fully dynamic. All system resources such as processes and message memory pools can be created and killed during run-time.
Beside the fast real-time kernel there is IPS (SCIOPTA Internet Protocols, TCP/IP) and Web Server support available. SCIOPTA M16C is royalty free and supports actually the C/C++ compilers and environments from Tasking and IAR.

| About SCIOPTA |
SCIOPTA Systems develops, sells, supports and maintains systems software for safety-critical embedded applications.
This includes real-time operating systems, network software, file systems, software for interface bus systems, board support packages and other system software.
SCIOPTA is a message based real-time operating system with many built-in safety functions and is therefore very well suited for software forming part of safety-related systems. SCIOPTA is in the process of certification by TÜV to IEC61508 at Safety Integrity Level 3 (SIL3).
But SCIOPTA is more than just an RTOS. It is a new and modern approach to design embedded systems. The direct message passing method allows easy and time-saving design of robust and secure systems. Applications based on the SCIOPTA Method can cover small static SoC designs to large dynamic distributed systems. |
