Due to the recent research requirement, I need to replot and analysis signal of high sampling rate (several mega samples per seconds) with PCIe card.

I planned to use numpy and matplotlib to plot, but I was a bit worried on the capability of using npTDMS and matplotlib to processing big data (100MB to 1GB, but big data in modern sense)

A quick test shows it works (to draw array of several mega samples), seems not worse than NI AIdem for visualization, all subject to serious delay during zooming in. However, the loading is much slower,  as npTDMS is pure python, not C API implemented.

And the program just consume as little memory as it is on disk size.

Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages

by Christoph Gohlke, Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics, University of California, Irvine.

1. Thread in RT-Thread works like  POSIX thread:  #include <posix_types.h>
2. Each thread has TCB (task control block),  like Linux kernel thread, share the global memory, but has its own stack (pre-decleared array with fixed size), has event and timer for each thread;  Thescheduler, which uses bitmap algorithm,  is similar with Linux kernel
3. RT-Thread is high performance RTOS, mainly focusing on ARM cortex-M 32bit CPU.
4. RTGUI/FTK   (object-oriented style widget,  just like GTK+)
5. Device model like Linux device tree.
6. IPv4 and IPv6 are supported by lwIP lib with <socket.h>, but 6LowPAN is not supported as Contiki.
7. Simulator on Linux and Windows (32bit  x86 only) and good documentation.
8. Python scons building system; but it is easier than Makefile to control multiple targets building.

Most important, it is free even  for commercial usage, via applying free license and keep RT-thread banner.

Finally, this is the host place:  https://github.com/RT-Thread

Since there is only one hardware SPI, but it is used by Ethernet or Wifi shield. If you wantto conenct some other sensors via SPI, the Ethernet lib is reluctant to cooperate.

So a software bit-banging library may be necessary.

Four SPI modes are supported, just change the macro definition in header file.
