FreeRTOS Implementations On Newer Arduino Boards

The post discusses testing FreeRTOS on different microcontroller architectures: ATmega328P, ATmega4809, SAMD21, Renesas RA4M1, and ESP32-S3. It highlights architectural differences and challenges. Special attention is given to time slicing and the need for modifications in library codes for smooth operation across these models, emphasizing differences in scheduler functionality and usage.

Other Microchip Technology Microcontrollers

Arduino has long used Atmel (now Microchip) 8-bit AVR architecture microcontrollers.  The ATmega328P, ATmega32U4, and ATmega2560 have been discussed here. Arduino no longer is “in bed” with Microchip, but there are two other Microchip microcontrollers used in Arduino boards, the ATmega4809 and the SAMD21. Both of these are favorites of mine. ATmega4809 The ATmega4809 is …
