Note

  • Unlimited means that the RTX kernel does not impose any limitations on the number. However, the available system memory resources limit the number of items you can create.
  • The default configuration of the RTX kernel allows 10 tasks and 10 user timers. It also disables stack checking by default.
  • In the RTX kernel, Event is simply another name for signal.
  • RAM requirements depend on the number of concurrently running tasks.
  • The code and RAM size was calculated for MicroLib runtime library.
