Is there any way to extend it’s RAM & ROM so that we can used it to install any lightweight OS on it.

You have powerful ThreadX API in BG96, why you need other OS

  1. BG96 use MMU enabled, so you NOT HAVE access to the ARM Cortex
    and you can not run other OS as FreeRTOS, LiteOS…etc
  2. BG96 not have resources to support Linux ( look EC2x OpenLinux modules )
  3. BG96 can run one userware multithread application (at two places - look BASE … 0x40000000 )
  4. Qualcomm ThreadX SDK can run many userware applications, but Quectel support only one

For this ask Quectel support
