MENTOR EMBEDDED Nucleus RTOS Large Internal MCUs Limited Connectivity ARM® Cortexe-A Nucleus® RTOS Nucleus easily accommodates both low-end MCUs to high-end MPUs. The Real-time Operating System for Today's Advanced Designs Mentor® Embedded Nucleus® RTOS enables system developers to address the complex requirements demanded by today's advanced embedded designs. Nucleus brings together integrated software IP, tools, and partner technologies into a single, ready-to-use solution - ideal for applications where a scalable footprint, connectivity, security, power management, and deterministic Deployed on over three billion embedded devices, Nucleus RTOS is a proven, reliable, and fully optimized RTOS. Nucleus has been used successfully in high volume and highly demanding market areas including industrial automation, medical devices, IoT/wearabies, software defined radios, smart energy systems, and more. With Nucleus, developers can deploy a hard real-time, deterministic kernel as small as 2kb on a wide selection of hardware including MCUs, DSPs, FPGAs, and MPUs. Product highlights include: Nucleus Platform Nucleus platform is a component of Mentor Embedded's multicore solution which enables developers to harness the power of today's advanced homo- geneous or heterogeneous multicore system-on-chip (SoC) processor architectures. The solution provides the industry's broadest portfolio of runtime operating systems, integrated tools, and multicore technologies to manage the system-wide resources on these complex SoC architectures. Nucleus® ReadyStart consists of a single unified source tree that includes all of the Nucleus components, giving the system developer the flexibility to easily add or remove components, scaling down to 2kb if required. PRODUCT FEATURES: ■ Hard, real-time performance ■ Fast boot time and submicro- second latency for interrupt service and context switching ■ Reliable, scalable kernel with a small memory footprint ■ Process model for application/ kernel separation and reliability ■ Power management APIs for low-power designs ■ A full range of integrated modules/services including: networking, file system, ■ Rich Ul development with optimized Qt® graphics support ■ Fully integrated development environment ensuring project creation, build, debug, and analysis are managed within ■ Extensive architecture support including ARM®, MIPS, and PowerPC Reduce risk Nucleus is market proven, having shipped in billions of products powered by hundreds of different Faster time to market Broad range of OS modules from single vendor speeds integration Lower production costs Achieve desired results with less processor and memory overhead

Process Model The Nucleus process model adds task and library isolation to the real-time embedded platform with either an MMU or Memory Protection Unit (MPU). Developers can dynamically update application software during system operation, allowing the target to be kept up to date, even in mission critical environments. Embedded developers can now take advantage of the latest power saving features in today's processors with the Nucleus® Power Management Framework. Developers specify application reguirements with high-level hardware agnostic APIs, and Nucleus automatically discovers power-...
