Azure^® RTOS for NXP Microcontrollers

Overview

Azure RTOS is an embedded development suite including a small but powerful operating system that provides reliable, ultra-fast performance for resource-constrained devices. It's easy-to-use and market-proven, having been deployed on more than 6.2 billion devices worldwide. NXP has partnered with Microsoft to bring Microsoft Azure RTOS to its general purpose microcontroller portfolio, delivered as part of MCUXpresso SDK.

NXP’s developer community using MCUXpresso Software and Tools now have seamless access to the capabilities of Azure RTOS, including fully integrated middleware and tools for file management, graphical user interface, security and networking. Azure RTOS software is complementary when used on approved NXP MCU platforms, but may not be combined with any other RTOS. Azure RTOS may be used in applications connecting to cloud services other than Azure cloud.

Features

Azure RTOS is industrial grade software for deeply embedded applications, and includes the following features:

Azure RTOS ThreadX: an advanced industrial grade RTOS providing advanced scheduling, communication, synchronization, timer, memory management, and interrupt management facilities
Azure RTOS USBX: a high-performance USB host, device, and on-the-go (OTG) embedded stack
Azure RTOS FileX: a high-performance, file allocation table (FAT)-compatible file system that supports most physical media, including RAM, Azure RTOS USBX, SD CARD, and NAND/NOR flash memories via Azure RTOS LevelX
Azure RTOS NetX Duo: an advanced, industrial-grade TCP/IP network stack including core network protocols such as IPv4, IPv6, TCP, and UDP as well as a complete suite of additional, higher-level add-on protocols
Azure RTOS GUIX: a complete graphical user interface (GUI) solution package, supported by Azure RTOS GUIX Studio which provides a complete, embedded (GUI) application design environment
