# ATmega4809 Curiosity Nano Getting Started With FreeRTOS™
66

7-
This is an example of how to get started with FreeRTOS™ on the AVR architecture with ATmega4809 Curiosity Nano. FreeRTOS™ is a real-time operative system kernel which allows the MCU to operate with different tasks simultaneously. This is accomplished with mutexes, semaphores and software timers.

[AN3007](#Related-Documentation) describes in detail how the FreeRTOS™ is being used to control the AVR.
