## FreeRTOS Trace Demo Project

![VCD timing file](Img/vcd_zoom.png)

This project demonstrates how to integrate **FreeRTOS trace** capabilities to enable visualization of both kernel and application code execution. The image above shows the visualization of the code execution for this demo project.

This project contains the test and demonstration code for the **FreeRTOS trace** based
on the **[RTEdbg toolkit](https://github.com/RTEdbg/RTEdbg)**. This is not a demonstration of correct FreeRTOS usage,
but rather a showcase of data logging during execution, encompassing FreeRTOS
trace, FreeRTOS system error trace, and application tracing. Certain elements are
intentionally implemented incorrectly to demonstrate the specific information
that is logged when FreeRTOS detects errors—for instance, when a Queue is full
or a Semaphore is already taken (or unavailable). The primary focus is placed
on the correctness of the FreeRTOS trace output, with less emphasis on whether
the `FreeRTOSConfig.h` file is set up in the most optimal and strictly correct manner.
