Practical Multitasking Fundamentals Programming embedded systems is difficult because of resource constraints and limited debugging facilities. Why develop your own Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) as well as your application when the proven FreeRTOS software is freely available? Why not start with a validated foundation? Every software developer knows that you must divide a difficult problem into smaller ones to conquer it. Using separate preemptive tasks and FreeRTOS communication mechanisms, a clean separation of functions is achieved within the entire application. This results in safe and maintainable designs. Practicing engineers and students alike can use this book and the ESP32 Arduino environment to wade into FreeRTOS concepts at a comfortable pace. The well-organized text enables you to master each concept before starting the next chapter. Practical breadboard experiments and schematics are included to bring the lessons home. Experience is the best teacher. Each chapter includes exercises to test your knowledge. The coverage of the FreeRTOS Application Programming Interface (API) is complete for the ESP32 Arduino environment. You can apply what you learn to other FreeRTOS environments, including Espressif’s ESP-IDF. The source code is available from GitHub. All of these resources put you in the driver’s seat when it is time to develop your next uber-cool ESP32 project. What you will learn: How preemptive scheduling works within FreeRTOS The Arduino startup “loopTask” Message queues FreeRTOS timers and the IDLE task The semaphore, mutex, and their differences The mailbox and its application Real-time task priorities and its effect Interrupt interaction and use with FreeRTOS Queue sets Notifying tasks with events Event groups Critical sections Task local storage The gatekeeper task

Zeitsteuerung, Scheduler, PIO und Zustandsmaschinen Multitasking ist der Schlüssel zu leistungsfähigen Embedded-Systemen, und zugleich eine der größten Herausforderungen in der Mikrocontroller-Programmierung. Dieses Buch zeigt Ihnen Schritt für Schritt, wie Sie von einem einfachen Ein-Task-Programm zu einem strukturierten, reaktionsfähigen und skalierbaren System gelangen. Dabei steht nicht nur das Wie, sondern vor allem das Warum im Mittelpunkt. Sie lernen: warum scheinbare Parallelität entsteht weshalb blockierende Programme instabil werden wie Aufgaben effizient und kontrolliert parallel ablaufen Ausgehend vom klassischen Superloop vermittelt das Buch moderne Multitasking-Strategien – von nicht-blockierender Programmierung und Tick-Systemen bis zu Task-Schedulern, Zustandsmaschinen und ereignisgesteuerten Konzepten. Der Fokus liegt auf der Praxis: Sensoren, Displays, Kommunikation und reale Anwendungen werden Schritt für Schritt integriert und mit verständlich kommentierten Beispielprogrammen erklärt. Fortgeschrittene Themen umfassen: Multicore-Programmierung mit dem Raspberry Pi Pico asynchrones Programmieren mit uasyncio RTOS-Grundlagen mit FreeRTOS die Kombination aus Multicore und RTOS Dabei werden auch die Grenzen dieser Techniken, insbesondere unter MicroPython, klar aufgezeigt. Das Buch richtet sich an ambitionierte Einsteiger und fortgeschrittene Entwickler, die Embedded-Systeme fundiert verstehen und robuste, wartbare Multitasking-Anwendungen entwickeln möchten.
