The benefits of the LynxOS RTOS family begin where other RTOSes leave off:

• Secure partitioning. Application components run fully protected in their own space.
• Hard real-time performance. Predictable performance for safety- and mission-critical embedded applications.
• Conformant to all POSIX interfaces. Rapid time-to-market and standards compliance for military and aerospace systems.
• ABI-compatibility with Linux®. Flexibility to leverage latest Linux applications and lower development costs.
• High-availability system. For the creation of fault-tolerant embedded systems capable of 99.999 percent uptime.

Software certification

When your products need certification to important industry standards like DO-178B, take advantage of our LynxOS-178 RTOS for software certification of safety-critical systems.

In addition, the Lynx Certifiable Stack (LCS) is a secure, standalone IPv4 protocol stack for safety-critical systems and is certifiable to DO-178B level A.

Every certification effort is unique. We've been helping customers build certification materials for their military and aerospace systems for years. Learn more about how LynuxWorks consulting and global services can help.
