This paper presents a hardware architecture and its FPGA implementation for Real-Time operating systems support. Dedicated hardware units are responsible for the maintenance of a 32 tasks list organized by time priority. The co-processor also communicates with the microprocessor to program interrupt modes and tasks. This dedicated HW architecture was easily prototyped in modern FPGAs, being a cost-effective solution to free microcontrollers from the burden of tasks time management. The FPGA has been completely synthesized based on a HDL description, allowing its use as a macrocell in larger designs. Tasks resolution is of 100 mu s. |
