RTOS and ARM

Hi all,

Does anyone use Nucleus or OSE RTOS with ARM9?

We're starting development of a new product with ARM9 and we're looking for
a RTOS, but we have no experience in this field. We need your opinion about
them or any other OS you can recommend us.

Thanks,
Daniel Navarro

We use Arc Internationals dev tools and MQX OS on the ARM7 and it has worked
pretty well.  Not exactly sure where they are with the ARM9, but I'm
guessing that they have it.

Nucleus is a fairly good choice.

It is mature, works well, easily supported and reasonably priced
and you should find a reasonable pool of people who have used
it, if you need any help (when can I start :-)?).

Yes, you can get an 'unsupported' OS cheaper but for a commercial
project the cost of something like Nucleus with a proper support
contract pays for itself in a couple of months

Can't speak for the ARM family, we have used MQX on CPU-32, and ran into 
unresolvable issues with it, switched to Nucleus and have been extremely 
happy with it thus far.

Used Nucleus for Motorola PPC design, was very happy with the level of
technical support.  Extremely responsive.  Nucleus is mature that enough of
the bugs have been discovered and the development tool chain works without
fail.

Thanks, maybe I consider your offer in the near future, it will be very
useful  for sure  ;-).

thanks

Thank you all for your quick response, but...

what's wrong with OSE??... nobody works with it??
I mean, I've heard it said that many mobile phones use it and thats the
reason we consider OSE as an option (our product will be like a mobile phone
but in private networks).

Of course, OSE is more expensive than Nucleus but I want to know wheter the
difference is worth it??

OSE is a modern message passing operating system and it supports the ARM9
MMU.
The message passing is the key to why it is used by companies like
Sony-Ericsson and Nokia.
Sony-Ericsson run OSE on AVRs and on ARM.
It is also used in Wireless Infrastructure. The complete Ericsson WCDMA
basestation is based on OSE Delta.

My friends at ENEA has an AT91RM9200 board since November last year.
OSE Delta (the more advanced version) requires an MMU
but there are MMU less versions that could run on let's say an ARM7 or
ARM946.


Atmel has some cool chips for VoIP/WLAN phones which might be useful for you
instead of those nassssty OMAPpers.
