Board Support Packages or BSP and Device Driver Development consist of hardware-specific drivers and other routines that allow a particular RTOS to function in a particular hardware environment. Board Support Packages (BSP Development) are a collection of information that defines how to support a particular hardware, set of devices, or hardware platform. Board Support Packages or BSPs are software packages or the “glue” that provide support based on the OS and SoC used in the hardware board. Board Support Packages are a customizable set of files that allow users to specify which drivers and routines are needed for a particular hardware based on the target application. Mistral’s customers can leverage on our in-depth expertise in Board Support Packages services on hardware platforms like ARM, PowerPC, Intel, NXP, Qualcomm and more for Embedded Linux, Window, Android, VxWorks, RTEMS OSes.
