Hi, I am trying to understand the uCOS architecture. I understood that drivers(like CAN, USB, etc..) should be created as TASKS for integrating with uCOS. Is it correct ? Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks & Regards, Gopu.S
uC/OS-II Vs Drivers

It depends.

The functions that control these drivers are called from tasks, but the drivers themselves are not necessarily "in" the task. Usually they are just a part of the code set and their functions are called from within the tasks that form your application. Some drivers like the TCP/IP stack utilize other uCOS facilities like semaphores to control operation, but these are requested/checked from within the applicatoin tasks.

Ur was an ancient Sumerian city near what was once the mouth of the Euphrates river. Not real sure what it has to do with uC/OS-II...

Sorry for the confusion. Here "ur" stands for "your". I meant to thank "Vladimir Vassilevsky" and "Scott".
No confusion. I hope you have the idea. No silly abbreviations.
