As we race through the age of ubiquitous connectivity with insatiable demand for data, the need for high-speed connectivity solutions is more evident than ever. 60 GHz or 802.11ad Wi-Fi is the new kid taking over the block - be it in homes or in offices, high density indoor or outdoor spaces, fronthaul or backhaul applications, it's everywhere! What's more is that this space is being primarily influenced by a lot of new tier 2 players who have innovative approaches to make the best use of this multi-gigabit rate spectrum. Come join NXP to learn how our SoCs are integral to furthering this ecosystem.

The automotive market is moving towards electrification and autonomous driving. This trend needs ADAS electronic systems capable of making decisions. To manage the risk of operations, the development of these systems follows the highest ISO26262 Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL D). All safety electronic systems require a safety microcontroller and a reliable, safe source of power management connected to the car battery: this is the System Basis Chip (SBC). Safety microcontrollers and safety system basis chips are the backbone of embedded system architectures. In this presentation, you’ll review the latest functional safety innovations at the power management level (SBC), from the development phase to system design, underscoring the link to reliability and how to enable hardware that is safety ready. A short introduction to the fault tolerant system will be also presented.

Many people involved in the electronics industry need a basic knowledge of semiconductor components in order to understand issues like manufacturing cycle time, semiconductor fab consolidation and failure analysis results. This session is geared towards a non-technical audience and gives a high-level overview of semiconductor devices and how they are made. The lecture begins with a brief overview of how semiconductor devices work. The bulk of the presentation describes the generic manufacturing flow for semiconductor devices with an emphasis on the complexity of the equipment/facilities used and the process time required.

This session will focus on the memory choices for several of the more popular i.MX 6 and i.MX 7 series as well as NXP’s newest and most powerful microprocessor, the i.MX 8 series. Most processors can support different types of volatile (DRAM) and non-volatile (Flash) memories. For example, the i.MX 7 can support low power DRAM (LPDDR), LPDDR2 and LPDDR3 as well as the standard DDR3 memory. For flash memories, the i.MX 7 supports parallel NOR, serial NOR or NAND Flash. Each of these memory choices has technical advantages and disadvantages as well as the overall market acceptance and expected longevity. The session will also discuss two new high performance memory technologies that the i.MX 8 plans to support, LPDDR4 and XTRMFlash. This session will allow you, the designer to make an informed decision when it comes to selecting memory for your design.

Join this session to learn about the i.MX 8/8X application processors that offer a natural migration path from the successful i.MX 6 series for industrial and automotive markets. This class will highlight the feature enhancements in CPU performance, graphics, multimedia, audio and connectivity. And will cover the basics on security, machine learning, build and distribution of Linux and Android systems, management of storage devices, graphics and demo settings. You will leave the session with the knowledge on the features of the i.MX 8/8X and how to get up and running quickly on the development boards.

Ensuring secure deployment of the billions of end nodes is a key enabler for the Internet of Tomorrow. The Kinetis K8x and Kinetis KL8x families are designed to deliver unsurpassed security for multi-application MCUs with hardware features such as Trust, Cryptographic acceleration, and Anti-Tamper to deliver a scalable, secure platform for embedded developers. This hands-on session will cover the needs of secure embedded applications, performing encrypted firmware updates, utilizing hardware cryptographic accelerators and extending trusted execution to external memories using an on-the-fly AES decryption module. Join this session to learn how your customers can get started creating their next secure node design.

This session will provide a deep-dive technical session on how to develop, simulate and test machine vision algorithms with MATLAB toolsets like Computer Vision System and Image Processing on NXP S32V microprocessors. The MATLAB automatic generated code will be executed on the S32V234 SBC boards on Arm and APEX cores simultaneous to squeeze the best performance. The session will concentrate on feature detection for driver monitoring and will showcase various concepts like object detection using Viola-Jones, tracking a ROI using Kalman filters and various feature detection using Haar cascades classifiers. At the end of the session the participants will be able to develop from scratch complex algorithms for detecting various feature like: pedestrians, traffic signs, lane departure, etc. and do all these from a simple and user friendly environment like MATLAB.

This session introduces the MCUXpresso suite of tools (IDE, SDK, Config Tools) and shows users how to rapidly start development with thousands of Kinetis and LPC MCUs. Using either Kinetis, LPC or i.MX RT development hardware, attendees will watch how to build a custom SDK, configure pins and clocks settings, generate a project, import and debug an application, as well as the advanced debugging capabilities of the MCUXpresso IDE, including trace, profiling, coverage, watch points and more.

The self driving car has a major impact on ECUs power and complexity and the network architecture connecting them together. The sheer fact that the driver is now a mere passenger with potentially limited options of taking back control raises significant functional safety questions that cannot be addressed with conventional approaches. In this presentation, we discuss how autonomous driving is impacting the functional safety requirements for automotive Ethernet switches and PHYs. We will review what functional safety for a component really means, going beyond marketing figures and ticking off feature lists. Finally, we will discuss how NXP is attacking this challenge in our current portfolio with a hint to the products to come.

With the very public hacks of some major vehicle brands in 2015, there is a renewed focus on vehicle security. There is a large range of vehicle electrical architectures, with significant regional variations, but there is an acceleration towards a domain orientated secure network. This presentation will look at the growing importance of the central gateway in a world of increased connectivity and security. As Ethernet becomes more prevalent, the topic of IP routing & firewall will be introduced and its role in adding another security layer. Finally, the role of the central gateway in enabling OTA software updated beyond the telematics unit, to the entire network will be presented.

This class will provide an overview introduction of i.MX RT series, including their key features and key peripherals. This session also explores the design and implementation of a secure boot by making use and protect against firmware attacks. Secure designs begin with a security model consisting of policies, an understanding of the threat landscape and the methods used to enforce physical and logical security. To protect firmware execution given today’s threat landscape, there must be a policy to only allow execution of authenticated firmware. The methods used to enforce this policy rely on MCU security technology to create a protected boot flow. The boot firmware can contain public key cryptography to authenticate application code.
