NXP semiconductor launched PMIC FS26 and MCUs of S32K3 series provide safety solutions for automotive applications.
S32K3 microcontroller (MCU) series, designed for automotive body electronics, battery management, and emerging domain controllers, simplifies software development with an enhanced software package that addresses information security, functional security, and low-level ADAS.
The S32K3's system-level functional safety approach includes security framework software, core self-check libraries and hardware features (including lock-step kernels), and clock/power/temperature monitors that easily match ISO 26262 certification requirements. In addition, NXP's FS26 PMIC, an extensible safety power management system, powers the MCUs in security-sensitive vehicle applications.
The PMIC FS26 combined with the newly released S32K3 MCUs series, constitutes software drivers, reference designs, and joint security documentation to further accelerate customer development schedules for secure applications.
Innovations in vehicles are driven by electronics that enable connectivity, electrification, and autonomy. As electronics proliferate to meet the needs of these growing areas, keeping systems safe is becoming increasingly important. NXP's new FS26 is able to address these issues by providing its third generation ASIL D safety power management solution. The combination of security traditions with security monitoring, power supply, system value-added, and system functional security monitoring can help customers simplify security design.
This portfolio combined with the NXP S32K3 MCU series to provide safety solutions for electrification, body electronics, battery management, emerging regional controllers, and general-purpose body and safety applications.
