PX5 RTOS
is the fastest!

Why is Performance Important?

According to most embedded developer surveys, RTOS real-time performance is at or near the top of their priorities. Some of the reasons for this include:

Real-time performance is all-important-by its very definition, if your device doesn’t meet its real-time requirements, it fails. In safety-critical applications, such a failure can be catastrophic. The superior performance of PX5 RTOS provides the best foundation to meet the most demanding real-time requirements.

PX5 RTOS requires fewer cycles, which implicitly helps meet the needs of applications with demanding power requirements, perhaps even making some of them feasible. In addition, the cycles not used by PX5 RTOS are now available for the application.

PX5 RTOS allows you to use a less expensive processor since it requires fewer cycles. How much of a savings depends on the use case, but simply increasing processing power from 84MHz to 168MHz can add another $1 to your BOM cost. Likely, the slower RTOS is bigger, too, which can further increase BOM cost.

Development with the PX5 RTOS is more manageable. It helps developers quickly solve their real-time, power, and application processing needs, saving time and schedule. As of 2023, an average 8-person development team costs roughly $6K daily. Using the PX5 RTOS, many development days can be eliminated, significantly reducing the total development cost, especially for larger development teams.
