RTOS/MSP432E401Y: LWIP stack with Ti RTOS

Part Number: MSP432E401Y


Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hello Team,

One of my KMM customers is using our TM4C129x series in their products. Recently for their Low end products I have proposed them MSP432P401R and with that I have suggested them to use our Simplelink MSP432E401Y. They have gone through data available on web site and came back to me with below queries:

Can we use lwip stack along with TI-RTOS?

What will you suggest to use, lwip stack or NDK?

What is the benefit of using TI-RTOS as it is not based on time-slicing scheduling?

 

Please advise on their queries ..

Regards,

Vikas Chola

  • Hi Vikas,

    1. TI-RTOS and lwIP: You need to write the porting layer in lwIP to have it work on TI-RTOS. We did it several years ago as an experiment and it appeared to work (note we did not do extensive testing on it). I would not recommend using that prototype as it is very old (and because I cannot find it).

    2. We fully support NDK on TI-RTOS and that is the recommended stack to use.

    3. TI-RTOS supports time-slicing, but not many embedded devices use it since it makes supporting real-time harder.
