MIHA675 – Multi Input Hall Automaton

Thursday, December 7, 2006

Previous examples illustrated VELOOS programming aspects. This post provides an example of using object oriented paradigm for designing VELOOS application. Unlike the previous examples which were purely programming exercises, this example is dedicated to a utilitarian home appliance application and provides a "reference design" for VELOOS applications.

VELOOS Example 3

Wednesday, December 6, 2006

This example for PIC12F675 implements set of “actuators” and “generators” controlled via USART. Actuators produce one 300 ms pulse when it receives command ‘ON’ and three 100 ms pulses delimited with 100 ms spaces (pauses) on command ‘OFF’. Generators, when turned on, produce pulses and spaces of the specified duration (1..255).

VELOOS 1.0 released

Monday, November 20, 2006

VELOOS is an object-oriented message-triggered cooperative operating system for 8-bit Microchip microcontrollers licensed to public under the Open Software License Release 1.0 includes VELOOS kernel and two timer drivers (TMR0 and TMR2 based). It has been tested on the following devices: PIC12F675, PIC16F690, PIC18F248. Download VELOOS v.1.0

VELOOS Example 1

Friday, November 10, 2006

The previous post gave a brief introduction to VELOOS design idea. VELOOS assumes that an application is decomposed on PDOs (Process Data Objects). This post describes by example features provided by VELOOS for implementing PDO.

Very Low Overhead Operating System

Sunday, October 29, 2006

VELOOS – Very Low Overhead Operating System VELOOS is a message-triggered cooperative operating system designed to run in places were a large vehicles can not run. Its implementation for PIC12F takes less than 200 instructions and 20 data registers1. With addition of a timer driver, it becomes a time-triggered RTOS.
