I was introduced to a great deal yesterday that I wanted to share for all my hardware and software friends out there. If you are using a Real-Time Operating System today you probably recgonize the name Micrium with their uC/OS operating system versions. They have just paired up with Renesas and are offering their kernel for free, middleware for free, and one year of support if you use a Renesas RX or RL78. If you use all the middleware components that is estimated to be greater than a $100k value. There are some stipulations to the deal (such as it must be for a commercial product), but if you are looking for a quick way to get started on a 16bit or 32bit microcontroller this might be a way. Check out the post to learn more:
