Automotive Ethernet PHYs enable future driving scenarios by providing the necessary physical throughput power. While software brings added value for security, diagnosis, energy efficiency and safety. As the functional requirements for automotive PHY drivers differ from general purpose applications, additional functionality is needed to closely monitor and diagnose the device and to create advanced use cases like Layer-1 wake-up and sleep. In this session, these specific requirements for automotive Ethernet PHY SW are discussed. Existing PHY SW frameworks such as Linux or AUTOSAR are introduced. Finally, the session will touch upon typical application scenarios which require interaction with PHY SW.

The automotive industry is rapidly evolving and the car is being transformed from a simple mode of transport to a personalized mobile information hub. All these new electronic functions bring great benefits to the driver, increasing comfort, convenience, safety and efficiency. But these features come with new risks, too. Modern vehicles feature wireless interfaces connect the in-vehicle systems of these ‘Connected Cars’ to external networks, which form entry points for hackers. This session will describe how a defense-in-depth security model can be supported through the full vehicle life cycle of design, build, use and scrap. Required elements include risk assessment, security by design, threat detection, incident response, and establishing a security culture.

NXP has prepared a DroneCode.org compatible Vehicle management unit (VMU) running PX4Pro. The NXPhlite VMU is compatible with the full stack from Dronecode, including internal and external comms, planning and groundstation control. This can be used as the basis to coordinate with a higher level companion system running LINUX and ROS, or as a standalone vehicle such as a semi-autonomous Drone, Rover, boat or even a lawnmower. NXPhlite features multiple interfaces and includes 100BaseT1 2-wire Ethernet and dual CAN interfaces.

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.

Ethernet adoption in new OEM platforms is accelerating, as a result of increased media, communication, and ADAS streams between different end points in vehicles. The required Quality of Service and synchronization is typically achieved through the implementation of Audio Video Bridging (AVB) specifications, or derivatives of AVB. NXP has a unique position in the market given our capability to offer a full solution for AVB in the car, from end points (MPUs as well as MCUs), PHYs, switches, plus the needed software stacks. In addition, the software stacks are full featured, including critical but often initially forgotten components such as Media Clock Recovery. Get an introduction to the basis of the AVB technology, and how NXP can help you deploy AVB in your products.

Learn how to move from physical to virtual network functions (VNFs) on ARM QorIQ platforms using KVM virtual machines and Docker containers with native DPAA2 and virtual virtio devices. Leverage packet processing, crypto acceleration and advanced offloads from DPDK/ODP and Linux native guest applications. Connect VNFs through virtual switching either using optimized user space implementations or offloading datapath into DPAA2 Advanced IO Processor. Make use of the switching functions provided by DPAA2 integrated Edge Virtual Bridge and L2 Switch. Leverage OPNFV integration and take advantage of distributed VNFs via Service Function Chaining.

In this class, participants will learn how to leverage model-based design technology (MATLAB/Simulink) to quickly develop motor control algorithms for BLDC, ACIM, and PMSM motors using NXP S32K MCUs on the S32K144 automotive reference platform. Learn the basics of the motor control toolbox to generate C-code from simulation models. The toolbox will be utilized demonstrating peripheral driver blocks, optimized automotive math/motor control blocks, software and processor in the loop techniques for algorithm verification, as well as other utilities for MCU profiling and algorithm development.

In the last 10 years, Green Hills has observed carmaker and Tier 1 customers expand from the traditional segments of powertrain, airbags and braking ECUs into graphics-rich dashboards, open source operating sytems and the secure Connected Car. A leading requirement is ECU consolidation while keeping ASIL safety intact. This requires the run-time architecture to safety and securely run guest operating systems Linux or Android on the same single core (or across multiple cores as SMP) alongside safety or security-critical applications like instrument clusters, gateways, V2X and ADAS. Here, we'll take a closer look at the customer’s pain points and goals, and we’ll summarize various industry solutions, including the INTEGRITY Multivisor secure hypervisor.

This course will provide an in-depth system analysis of High Voltage (HV) Electric. We review how the MCU, GDIC and IGBTs function individually and as a system. We will discuss EV and HEV power systems and components for achieving a highly efficient and safe HV motor drive. Using system block diagrams and oscilloscope screen shots of NXP’s new HV IGBT GDIC, the GD3100, and Fuji GEN 7 IGBT modules as we will consider how to achieve smaller, more efficient and lower cost HV inverter designs. We will review SPI interface programmability that enables any IGBT to be tuned for maximum efficiency, thermal design considerations, layout considerations, power budget assessment, power up sequencing, managing short circuit faults, temperature monitoring and advanced features achieve system ASIL level D and ISO26262 certification.

NXP’s latest and most powerful Microprocessor requires the latest and fastest memories to keep it running efficiently. During this session, we will discuss the new memories supported on the new i.MX 8 processor family. For DRAM, this will include DDR4 and Low Power DDR4. For non-volatile memory this will include Octal SPI NOR (XccelaTM Flash) which offers up to 400MB/s as well as the latest eMMC 5.X devices that also support high speeds. These devices are offered with Commercial, Industrial or Automotive temperature and quality ratings. I will include a section on packaging technologies that can provide designers with innovative ways to reduce size. These include Package on Package and Multi-Chip Packages. This session will provide designers with the tools necessary to create state-of-the-art i.MX 8 systems. Micron will be giving away 2-1/2” 120GB SSDs to the first 50 attendees of this session.

Introduction and review of the latest family of Functional Safety System Basis Chips with integrated CAN FD PHY. Power Management and flexible safety features will be discussed as well as the operation and interconnection with MCUs.

Security is becoming a quintessential topic for any OEM, and possibly for the entire industry, as evolutions of Autonomous drive capabilities are inexorably tied to the ability to secure the car. A number of components in the security architecture of nodes in any vehicle are very close to the SoC, exploiting hardware capabilities to achieve intended functionality. Answering customer needs, NXP is providing a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) stack, which provides a significant number of security features required by the Automotive needs. Get an introduction to the basis of NXP’s TEE stack, capabilities, and how does this integrates in the typical secure node architecture.
