Tackling software costs and complexity
The S32K3 family includes scalable 32-bit Arm® Cortex®-M7-based MCUs in single, dual, and lockstep core configurations supporting ASIL B/D safety applications.
S32K3 MCUs feature hardware security engine (HSE) with NXP firmware, support for firmware over-the-air (FOTA) updates and free ISO 26262 compliant Real-Time Drivers (RTD) for AUTOSAR® and non-AUTOSAR.
S32K3 MCUs are available in the new NXP MaxQFP package, which reduces the package footprint by up to 55% when compared to the standard QFP package.
S32K3 MCUs: simplifying software development for automotive and industrial
S32K3 help reduce automotive software cost and complexity, enabling the development of smarter, safer, and more secure vehicles.
