LynuxWorks™ MSRP-based (manufacturer's suggested retail price) pricing is a breakthrough program that bases the price of the LynxOS® real-time operating system (RTOS) on the retail price of the product in which it is being used.

Designed for makers of low-cost consumer electronic devices, MSRP-based pricing allows developers to integrate LynxOS into more products by reducing royalty fees to a negligible portion of the device's MSRP.

LynxOS royalties scale based on the MSRP of devices priced at $150 and above, and manufacturers get one fixed low cost per product, regardless of the number of processors and LynuxWorks software content in the device. As a result, LynuxWorks' customers can lower the cost of goods in their production devices and fix those costs based on the MSRP rather than volume.

In the past, developers were locked into substantial volume commitments to get a desirable price, or were forced to sacrifice quality and performance with the operating system they chose. Now they can have the robust LynxOS RTOS at an affordable price, even in low volumes.

This industry-leading MSRP-based model is offered as an alternative to our already low, volume-based royalty pricing, so that all system developers can utilize the power of LynxOS with a cost-effective pricing model.
