µ-velOSity RTOS
The μ-velOSity Real-Time Operating System supports a wide range of microcontroller architectures and has passed the highest level of functional safety certifications. It is purpose-built to meet the stringent demands for security, compactness, and reliability in embedded applications.
Core Technology and Solutions
Tailored for automotive, industrial, and IoT applications, providing extremely small memory footprint and outstanding performance.
Reliable Microkernel Architecture
The core of the μ-velOSity RTOS is an efficient and reliable kernel with minimal footprint and a clean API. It enables applications, middleware, and drivers to operate outside the kernel memory space.
The system comes with three pre-defined build configurations (speed-optimized, size-optimized, or debug-optimized), allowing developers to quickly adjust RTOS behavior or create custom configurations to meet specific project requirements.
Reliable Security Solutions
Modern microcontrollers require purpose-built RTOSs. In automotive electronics, for example, cybersecurity, functional safety, cost, and scalability are top priorities for ECU nodes with extremely small memory footprint requirements.
μ-velOSity perfectly adapts to limited internal memory, provides application-layer support for new domain-specific hardware, and has passed the highest levels of safety and security certifications, meeting all stringent requirements.
Certifications, Features, and Development Tools
It has passed multiple industry-standard certifications and features the most comprehensive suite of embedded development tools, helping to reduce software costs and shorten time-to-market.
