Real-Time Operating Systems, Source Available, Open Source, µC/OS-III, RTOSes, Micrium Source code now available for µC/OS-III

SAN JOSE, Calif. – Micrium is making the source code of its latest real-time operating system--µC/OS-III—available for evaluation. The move comes at a time when the private company claims it is seeing double-digit growth in sales and calls for evaluation boards using a wide variety of processors.

The company's third-generation RTOS was originally released in 2009 with a handful of evaluation boards and a book describing the software's capabilities. The prior version of the RTOS, released in 1999, is already available as source code for evaluation.

The latest version of the book on µC/OS-III, now available as a free download, also includes a section with example code for four medical electronics systems including a pulse oximeter and a blood glucose meter. The company aims to expand its efforts to provide technical documentation for other vertical markets

Universities and researchers are allowed to download and use the company's RTOSes for free. Commercial users are subject to licensing fees.

Jean J. Labrosse,founder and chief executive of Micrium, claims his is the only commercial RTOS companythat provides source code for evaluation use.

OEMs who roll their own RTOSes still represent the largest slice of the market with those using free open source RTOSes coming in second, said Mike Phipps, director of sales, marketing and business development for the company. However, Micrium has been gaining share since Intel bought Wind River, he claimed.
