PrKernelv4 is the first commercially available real-time operating system that has been pre-integrated seamlessly with the Nios II IDE and the hardware abstraction layer from Altera.
PrKernelv4 is the first commercially available real-time operating system that has been pre-integrated seamlessly with the Nios II integrated development environment (IDE) and the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) from Altera.
The Nios II IDE is based on the Eclipse project as a standard integrated development environment for its open architecture and ease of integration features through addon packages.
Altera also offers the Nios II HAL in its development kit to simplify the process of creating a board support package.
The HAL eliminates board support package (BSP) and real time operating system (RTOS) dependence on different versions of the FPGA and Nios II soft cores.
The significance of PrKernelv4 supporting the Nios II HAL and Eclipse means that Nios II developers can leverage predeveloped low-level integration and can immediately work on high level applications without being bogged down with typical BSP hassles.
PrKernelv4 is available from Logic Technology.
