Can some PIC ICs be embedded with RTOS?

[pareshmhetre]

hi..
I have some hands on experience of 8051.
Now wanted to switch to PIC. I heard Some PIC ICs can be embedded with RTOS. Wanted to know about it.
What are possible possible projects?
What are pre-requisites?
Is it really possible for implementation at under graduate level?

You can try porting FreeRTOS, or uCOS-II on any PIC.

Hi,
From all available RTOS for PIC the best is SALVO (www.pumpkininc.com) - you can run huge number of tasks even in extremely small controllers (even in PIC12C508 with 20-30 bytes of RAM!). It's extremely fast and cmpact kernel, it's also embedded into HiTech C compiler. So if you want the best combination compiler and RTOS this is HiTech for PIC and SALVO
