This updated edition of Hands-On RTOS with Microcontrollers is packed with cutting-edge content to help you expand your skills and stay ahead of the curve with embedded systems development. Written by senior engineers with decades of experience in embedded systems and related technologies, it covers the role of real-time OSs in today’s time-critical applications, and it covers FreeRTOS, including its key capabilities and APIs. You’ll find detailed descriptions of system design, hands-on system use, the hardware platform (dev-board, MCU, and debug-probe), and the development tools (IDE, build system, and debugging tools).

This second edition teaches you how to implement over 20 real-world embedded applications, using FreeRTOS's primary features. The chapters include example programs on GitHub, with detailed instructions. You’ll create and install your own FreeRTOS system on the dev-board (purchased separately), and set up an IDE project with debugging tools.

An ST dev-board is used with the book, and it is purchased separately (STM32 Nucleo-F767ZI - the dev-board is not required to read and understand the book).

By the end of this book, you’ll have the hands-on skills to start designing, building, and optimizing embedded applications, using FreeRTOS, development boards, and debugging tools.
