RTOS/TM4C123GH6PM: difference between TI RTOS and SYS/BIOS

Mohamed Ebrahim

Part Number: TM4C123GH6PM

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hi,
1- From my search online i can say difference between TI RTOS and SYS/BIOS is on of them has drivers for interfacing with Tiva C board and the other one isn't, is that right ?
2- If right which one doesn't has the drivers ?
3- Is that mean the one doesn't has drivers can only interface with timer by itself and i should add other drivers that i use only (without timer) on my own ?
4- Is there tutorial for how to install it on CCS and where can i download it also ?

Best Regards.

Hi,
The SYS/BIOS is the TI-RTOS Kernel (the OS part portion). On top of the kernel the TI-RTOS contains drivers (i.e. IPC, Networking, Filesystem, TivaWare and etc) that are built alongside the OS. Please refer to the TI-RTOS User's guide for your application development. www.ti.com/.../spruhd4m.pdf. The TI-RTOS doesn't all drivers for all peripherals. You will need to add your own drivers or just use the native TivaWare drivers along with the TI-RTOS. For example, the TI-RTOS does not support ADC and you will need to use the TivaWare ADC driver within TI-RTOS.

Please refer to below link for TI-RTOS training and installation.
