MQX™ v5 Software Solutions

MQX App Builder is here.

MQX^™ v5 is a continuation of the MQX Classic product available under low-cost commercial licensing terms. MQX v4.2 is no longer available and superseded by v5. MQX v5 is backward compatible with MQX Classic and includes a multitasking RTOS kernel, a TCP/IP stack (RTCS) with Internet protocol v6 (IPv6), embedded MS-DOS file system (MFS), USB host/device stack and task-aware debugging. MQX v5 board support packages (BSPs) are available for a number of platforms, with other BSPs available upon request.

What's Included

Packages are created specifically for the licensed processor and licensee's set of compiler / debugger development tools, for example, the i.MX RT1170 processor with the MCUXpresso Development Tools. Packages are shipped to the licensee electronically as soon as we can upon receipt of an order for a license. All licenses include the first year of maintenance updates, and at the completion of the first year the maintenance period can optionally be extended (see the maintenance section of the 'Buy Options' page).

The delivered packages include the full source code for the libraries and examples relevant to the target processor. Not every example will include project files for your chosen set of tools, but a representative set of examples will be included which can be cloned to create project files for other examples of interest. Only the Debug build configuration is supported for the libraries and examples. Should you prefer to release your code with optimizations set to something higher than zero, it is recommended that you update the Debug build configuration to the desired optimization level, either at the beginning of your project, or at the latest, when you start a full set of regression tests.

The Board Support Package (BSP) and supporting examples will support the populated peripherals on the NXP evaluation board (EVK) to the degree that they can. Licensees may have to make updates to the BSP in order to support the peripherals on their custom hardware.

Note: In order to keep licensees as low as possible, MQX licenses do not include technical support. However, a small package of 20 hours of technical support ($4K) may be added if purchased at the time of purchasing the MQX license. At any time, larger packages of support can be added through Pro Support. Details are available at www.nxp.com/prosupport. Technical Support to MQX licensees is provided by the team of experts that are actively maintaining MQX.
