xcore^® delivers in hardware, many of the elements that you’d expect to see in a real-time operating system (RTOS). Separate logical cores for real-time tasks make it more predictable, more scalable and faster to respond than conventional RTOS based sequential processor systems.

Our software tools make it easy to define real-time tasks as a parallel system. They come with standards compliant C and C++ compilers, language libraries, simulator, symbolic debugger, and runtime instrumentation and trace libraries. Multicore support offers features for task based parallelism and communication, accurate timing and I/O, and safe memory management. All components work off the real-time multicore functionality, giving a fully integrated approach.
