MQX RTOS
The MQX real-time operating system (RTOS) provides real-time performance within a small, configurable footprint. The RTOS is tightly integrated with 32-bit MCUs and MPUs from NXP and is provided with commonly used device drivers. The MQX RTOS is designed to have a modern, component-based microkernel architecture allowing for customization by feature, size, and speed by selecting the components engineers wish to include while meeting the tight memory constraints of embedded systems. The MQX RTOS can be configured to take as little as 8 KB of ROM and 2.5K RAM on Arm Cortex M4, including kernel, 2 task applications,1 LW Semaphore, interrupt stack, queues, and memory manager. Provides a fully-functional RTOS core with additional, optional services. Components are linked in only if needed, preventing unused functions from bloating the memory footprint. Key components are included in both full and lightweight versions for further control of size, RAM/ROM utilization and performance options.

QNX Neutrino RTOS
Since 1980, thousands of companies have deployed QNX’s real-time operating systems to ensure the ideal combination of performance, security and reliability in mission-critical systems. At the core of QNX technology is the QNX Neutrino® Real-time Operating System (RTOS), a full-featured RTOS enabling next-generation products in every industry where reliability matters, including automotive, medical devices, robotics, transportation, and industrial embedded systems. With the QNX microkernel architecture, a component failure doesn’t bring down other components or the kernel. The failed component is simply shut down and restarted without adversely affecting the rest of the system. The QNX Neutrino RTOS offers the determinism only a real-time OS can provide. Techniques such as adaptive partitioning guarantee critical processes get the cycles they need to complete their tasks on time, while maintaining the performance your complex embedded systems require.
