High-performance vehicle network processors support complex architectures

Mouser now stocks the NXP Semiconductors S32G3 vehicle network processors. The high-performance processors combine CAN, LIN, and FlexRay networking with high data rate Ethernet networking, supporting the necessities of complex vehicle architectures involving service-oriented gateways, vehicle computers, domain controllers, safety processors, and zonal processors. The devices support a range of automotive applications, including FOTA, zonal gateways, automotive access points, safety processors, and vehicle compute.

The processors feature up to eight Arm Cortex-A53 cores with Arm Neon technology organised in two clusters of four cores and up to four Arm Cortex-M7 dual-core lockstep complexes for real-time applications. The processors operate within a temperature range of -40C to +105C and are AEC-Q100 qualified. The vehicle network processors feature an LLCE for automotive network acceleration and a PFE for Ethernet network acceleration. The processors also offer up to 20MB of on-chip system SRAM. The processors feature 16 isolation domains with eXtended Resource Domain Control and advanced functional safety hardware and software for ASIL D systems.

The S32G-VNP-EVB3 S32G vehicle network processing evaluation board 3 supports the vehicle network processors. The S32G-VNP-EVB3 evaluation board provides a combination of automotive and enterprise networking technology with multiple interfaces for vehicle networks. The evaluation board includes peripheral devices with PCI Express and USB interfaces, enabling OEMs and software ecosystem partners to shorten the time to market for new applications.
