Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) solutions for the
dsPIC30F product family provide the necessary
function calls and operating system routines to enable
you to write efficient C and/or assembly code for multi-
tasking applications. RTOS is especially suited for
applications where program, and, more importantly,
data memory resources, are limited. Configurable and
optimized kernels support various RTOS application
requirements.

The dsPIC30F RTOS solutions are three-tiered:

• CMX-RTX™ full-featured fully-preemptive 

multitasking RTOS

• CMX-Tiny+™ fully-preemptive scaled-down 

version of CMX-RTX

• CMX-Scheduler™ fully-preemptive, multitasking, 

mini RTOS (FREE)

CMX-RTX™

In some cases, well-structured linear programming is
sufficient for a product. However, in most cases,
programmers appreciate not having to worry about
structuring their code to perform all necessary tasks in
a timely manner. CMX-RTX helps by allowing tasks
(pieces of code that do specific duties) to run quasi-
concurrently. That is, tasks seem to run at the same
time – doing many specific jobs simultaneously

CMX-RTX takes the headaches out of real-time
programming. The software lets the programmer
concentrate on the overall application while it takes
care of the details. CMX-RTX lets you finish projects
faster and more efficiently.

Some real-time operating systems offer only
cooperative scheduling, which means that the running
task is required to call the scheduler to perform a task
switch. Others offer time slicing in which each task runs
for a given period of time and then must switch tasks,
regardless of conditions. Still others claim to be fully
preemptive, yet they do not allow any interrupt to cause
a preemption. All of these models will fail at one point
or another.
