FreeRTOS applied to STM32 microcontrollers

Description

Understand FreeRTOS main characteristics, its behavior, setup possibilities etc.

Implement functions as queues, semaphores, software timers, task notification, event groups and mutex. Comprehend their behavior using proper tools and integrating microcontroller peripherals such as uart and gpio.

Reference online bibliography is also explored in order to assist the student during the training and for future consultancy.

The Training examples will be developed using STM32CubeIDE, the resulting behavior will be analyzed using SEGGER SystemView and Termite softwares.

STM32CubeIDE is an integraded development tool you can develop different programs for STM32 microcontrollers its advanced C or C++ development platform with bunch of peripheral configuration, code generation, compilation and also debbuging features for all STM32 microcontrollers and microprocessors.

SEGGER SystemView is a software used to analyze the embedded rtos application behaviour executing on target. All necessary steps to install and modify necessary software files in order to collect rtos events at ram and save the data to an output file will be covered in the training.

In the hardware side, we gonna use STM32F407ZGT6 Development board. We also need a ST-Link programmer if we not choose the STM32F4Discovery development board, as this board comes with a ST-Link/V2 embedded debug tool. And a usb/serial adaptater.

What You Will Learn!

• Implement different FreeRTOS API functions on STM32F4 microcontrollers
• Explore and understand the mainly FreeRTOS API concepts
