Overview
Description
This product is a real-time operating system (real-time OS) that is an implementation of the μITRON4.0 specification. μITRON is the predominant real-time OS for embedded systems in Japan. Its low resource requirements, outstanding real-time performance, and broad range of service calls make it very suitable for embedded systems requiring true real-time and multi-tasking capabilities.
In addition, its high degree of compatibility with the compiler package from Renesas Electronics and multitasking debugging on the IDE will help you greatly reduce development times and get your products to market more quickly.
The H8SX family supports interrupt control mode 2.0 and CPU operating mode supports advanced mode. The H8S family supports interrupt control mode 3.2.1.0 and CPU operation mode supports advanced mode and normal mode.
Features

Additional Details
Functions
The HI1000/4 kernel consists of the following modules. Each module is provided by functions (service calls) .
- Scheduler
Manages execution sequence of multiple tasks based on their priority levels. - Task management
Manages task status such as RUNNING, READY, WAITING or SUSPENDED. - Task-dependent synchronization
Changes task status from other task, and synchronizes tasks. - Interrupt processing
Returns from an interrupt handler. - Time management
Sets system timer used by HI1000/4 kernel and starts user-defined cyclic handler. - System State Management
Reports information such as version number of HI1000/4 kernel. - Synchronization/communication
Carries out synchronization and communication between tasks. The following function modules are available:- Event flag
Tasks are synchronized by the status of flags managed by the kernel. - Semaphore
Tasks are synchronized by the semaphore counter value managed by the kernel. - Mail box
Tasks are synchronized by sending or receiving a message. - Data queue
Tasks are synchronized by communicating 4-byte data.
- Event flag
- Extended Synchronization/Communication
Carries out synchronization and communication between tasks. The following function module is available:- Mutex
Makes use of priority ceiling protocol for avoiding priority inversion to synchronize tasks.
- Mutex
- Memory pool management
Dynamically allocates/frees memory area used by tasks. Enables efficient use of memory. - Cyclic handler function
Controls the execution of a handler activated periodically.

- How to display time in task trace window and task analyze window?
Time is not displayed if you use E10A-USB. (except SH2A-DUAL)
Dec 7, 2009 - Why are Task trace window and task analyze window not displayed?
E8a emulator does not support task trace window and task analyze window. Also if you use E10A-USB emulator with a cable for 14 pins connector, task trace window and task analyze window are not displayed.You can display task trace window when using a cable for 36 or 38 ...
