Getting Started

For more information on FreeRTOS and provisoning of secure element, refer to the Getting Started guide of different boards.

Introduction

The FreeRTOS is abstracted as Harmony 3 component to easily configure and generate code to develop cloud connected applications using Harmony 3 framework. It uses updated version of FreeRTOS 202002.00 to support Microchip products for code generation.

Amazon FreeRTOS is now termed as FreeRTOS, but we still use the term Amazon FreeRTOS as the H3 component name to avoid confusion with existing H3 FreeRTOS (kernel) Component.

FreeRTOS is supported in the following products.

• SAM E70/S70/V70/V71 Family + + ECC608 (Optional) + WINC1500/WINC3400 (Optional)
• SAM D5x/E5x Family + ECC608 (Optional) + WINC1500/WINC3400 (Optional)
• PIC32MZ Embedded Connectivity with Floating Point Unit (EF) Family + ECC608 (Optional) + WINC1500/WINC3400 (Optional)
• SAM G55 Family + ECC608 + WINC1500/WINC3400.

This repository contains following three components for configuration and code generation.

AmazonFreeRTOS Component

Amazon FreeRTOS component is used to configure and generate FreeRTOS code, indepdent of any hardware configuration

AmazonHWInterface component

The Hardware interface component is used to abstract device, interface and key storage configuration and code generation.

There are three configurations supported by this component

1. Wired Solution Only.

This solution is available in all platforms which supports wired connectvity (except SAMG55).

2. Wired + ECC608 Solution

This solution is available in all platforms which supports wired connectvity (except SAMG55).

3. WIFI Solution (WINC based solution can be WINC1500/WINC3400)

This solution is available in all platforms supported..

AmazonDeviceTester component

Amazon DeviceTester component is used to configure and generate code for qualification testing. It adds required dependencies for testing the Amazon FreeRTOS solution using Amazon IDT (refer: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/freertos/latest/userguide/device-tester-for-freertos-ug.html).

Important Licensing Information: For FreeRTOS License, please refer to the license file in the FreeRTOS repository.
