NXP Semiconductors N.V has introduced the new S32J family of high performance Ethernet switches and network controllers. The S32J family shares a common switch core, NXP NETC, with NXP’s latest S32 microcontrollers and processors, allowing them to operate together as one expanded virtual switch. The common networking switch core simplifies integration and software reuse with other solutions within the recently announced NXP CoreRide platform and offers OEMs more efficient and re-configurable networking choices.
The combination of the S32J family with the NXP CoreRide platform provides production grade networking solutions with preintegrated software and tooling. The solutions include a complete software enablement kit for HSE and MACsec security, TSN stacks and remote configuration and monitoring capabilities. A virtual development kit for the S32J family will be available by the end of 2024. The solution will be available to OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers in 2025.
The building blocks for SDV networks says, “The transition to software-defined vehicles requires OEMs to simplify their network architectures and reduce the software and hardware integration complexity,” said Meindert van den Beld, senior vice president and general manager of in-vehicle networking at NXP. “The S32J and NXP CoreRide networking solutions provide production-ready building blocks for these new software-defined network architectures.”
NXP CoreRide Networking ecosystem voices, Dr. John Heinlein, Chief Marketing Officer at Sonatus says, “Sonatus is a longstanding partner with NXP, with our combined technologies already in millions of production vehicles. This new NXP CoreRide networking solution deepens our support for vehicle networking and the NETC networking foundation across NXP products, enabling OEMs to accelerate development of more adaptable, upgradable architectures for software-defined vehicles.”
