Dear Santhakumari,

Hello.

Sorry, I have one more question?

I'd know the detail design (coding) techniques for using freeRTOS.

But I can't find them in Analog Devices Web Site.

What is good for us to learn the freeRTOS detail using with SHARC+ core and CCES environment?

Ragards,

The Analog Devices FreeRTOS product is an add-on to the FreeRTOS Real-time operating system that provides additional support for Analog Devices processors. The product is installed on top of the FreeRTOS operating system in order to gain additional platform support.

In order to avoid confusion the FreeRTOS operating system will be referred to as the FreeRTOS product. Components from Analog Devices are always referred to as the Analog Devices FreeRTOS product or the FreeRTOS product from Analog Devices.

To install the Analog Devices FreeRTOS product you will need to first unzip the FreeRTOS product and then install the Analog Devices FreeRTOS product on top of it:
For example, unzip them into folder "freertos":
1. Unzip the "FreeRTOSv10.0.0.zip" into C:\Analog Devices\freertos.
You will get the path such as "C:\Analog Devices\freertos\FreeRTOSv10.0.0\FreeRTOS".
2. Unzip "adi-freertos-1.5.1.zip" into C:\Analog Devices\freertos.
It will add new files and overwrite some files saved in "C:\Analog Devices\freertos\FreeRTOSv10.0.0
