Hi,

I would like to use FreeRTOS for Renesas RC8 micro family. Following are details:

MICRO: RC8 family from Renesas
COMPILER: E30 from Renesas

I would like to know the following:
1. Has anyone used it on these micro-controllers?
2. What is approx footprint of RTOS itself?
3. Will I able to schedule some timed - tasks as meeting timing requirement is critical?

Appreciate your quick response and thanks for the support.

Rgds,
Vinayak

You may find some contributed R8C code but there is no official port so I can’t help with code size specifics.  However see the FAQ for general flash and RAM footprint numbers.

Regards.
