RTOS/CC3220: Can Linux be used as OS on CC3220

Charles Boyer

Part Number: CC3220

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hello,

I am looking at an MCU with WiFi to run a voice recognition SW on a small IOT device. I am thinking of using the CC3220 and would like to know if I can install a version of Linux on it as operating system or I can only use TI-RTOS? Linux is a requirement for the SW I want to use.

Thanks,

Charles

Hi Charles,

CC3220 have inside Cortex-M4 MCU and from this reason you cannot use Linux. By TI are supported two RTOS - TI-RTOS and FreeRTOS. Theoretically could be used uClinux with CC3220, but this still not be useful for your.
