Presented by Lan Zhou from Landzo Presented at DwF Kinetis MCUs Based on ARM® Technology Shenzhen - January 27, 2015

Learn about the latest MCUs recently added to the Kinetis V series, including the Kinetis KV5x MCU - Freescale's first MCU featuring the ARM Cortex-M7 core.

This session will focus on the details of the programming model for the Advanced IO Processor (AIOP), including the scheduler, accelerators and memory scheme. We will also explain the architecture of AIOP software and ways to integrate it into applications.

The Kinetis bootloader is a configurable flash programming utility that operates over a serial connection on Kinetis MCUs. In this session, you will learn about the bootloader's major features and most recent updates, followed by a hands-on class where we'll discuss all of the configurations complete with lab examples covering how to talk, configure and use the Kinetis bootloader. We will cover all of the protocols and have lab examples for communication to the Kinetis bootloader using UART, USB HID. Attendees will learn to implement a UART-only bootloader with small code footprint. Attendees will leave the class with all the information to re-create the labs.

The D-Bug12XZ firmware combined with the Freescale LFBDMPGMR BDM programmer hardware provides a powerful low-level debugging environment for S12 and S12X MagniV devices. There are times when Electronic Control Modules (ECM) in a car will become inoperative or unresponsive to normal communication channels such as CAN or LIN. The Background Debug Module (BDM) on these devices combined with the D-Bug12XZ  debugger provides the ability to reliably ‘hot-connect’ to the S12 and S12X MagniV devices without resetting or disturbing the running target. Once BDM communications is established with the target, the MCU’s I/O and memory resources can be uploaded for analysis. This session will teach the features and use of these tools to ‘hot connect’ to an unresponsive target MCU with the goal of determining the possible cause of the software and/or hardware failure.

This session will explain how to migrate between the QorIQ T2081 and T1040 communications processor families by achieving hardware and software compatibility. The session will also discuss hardware, software and board-level considerations that exist while migrating between these processors and designing a common board for these processors. 

The QorIQ T1040 and T1042 communication processors support four integrated 64-bit e5500 Power Architecture® processor cores with high-performance data path acceleration architecture (DPAA) and network peripheral interfaces required for networking and telecommunications. This session will provide an in-depth look at the new features being introduced in the T1040 family such as the Single Source Clock, L2 Switch, sSDXC, QSGMII and DDR4. The session will also cover power-saving schemes of T1040. Presented by Du Chen​ Presented at DwF Digital Networking - Nanjing - 21 May 2015 Session ID: APF-SNT-T1359

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.

An overview and details on the latest generation of TPMS solution, FXTH87xxx family portfolio. A general introduction on TPMS market, competition, system will be discussed and concept training of RF, LF and dynamic acceleration will be provided. Trainees will learn how to set up development environment for customers as well.

This session shall give an introduction to MAPS development kit for China market. Learn how to use it and run some examples. 

PROFIBUS, CAN and RS232 are extensively used in communications networks in factories, buildings, transport infrastructures and monitoring/control equipment in our cities. Ethernet offers higher bandwidth and, in many cases, lowers cost--especially when deployed in daisy-chain topology. Technologies such as EtherCAT, PROFINET and EtherNet/IP are testament to this. In this session, we will explore how QorIQ processor families can help equipment manufacturers span this landscape using a QUICC Engine (QE) controller for UART/Ethernet-based protocol implementation, a Enhanced Triple Speed Ethernet Controller (eTSEC) for intelligent Ethernet classification and 2-port switching, and an eight-port gigabit Ethernet switch for wire-rate switching. Reference design software and hardware files will be available to help you start your own PROFIBUS and PROFINET designs. 

This session covers the  QorIQ T4240/T2080  and next-generation QorIQ LS series processors as iNIC solutions supporting the emerging high performance requirements of virtualized servers. The sessions with cover such topics as implementing virtualized functions with SR-IOV thru the DPDK interface. Also covered will be L2 offload using Open vSwitch controlled by standard SDN controllers.

The T1023/24 family of products are the newest QorIQ 28nm Power architecture devices running at 1.0-1.4GHz with both single and dual core options.  The T1023/24 devices deliver up to 2-10x performance over current QorIQ P1 family processor. Learn the key architectural difference between P102x and T1023/24 and recommendations for migrating from P series to T series. Discuss Data Path Acceleration Architecture (DPAA) and the benefits of the DPAA and SEC 5.X offload upgrades.

This session will provide an introduction to the Freescale MQX™ RTOS.

As the IoT gains momentum, the growth in the number of nodes connected to the internet poses a number of security challenges. The sheer number of devices establishing new connections to the cloud places a severe computational load on web servers. At the other end of the network, existing internet authentication algorithms are too heavy for small, battery powered sensor nodes to process. Further, more personal data will be captured and must be protected from cyber-attacks. This session will propose solutions to mitigate these challenges, both in the cloud and in the edge nodes.

This session will explain how to migrate between the QorIQ T2081 and T1040 communications processor families by achieving hardware and software compatibility. The session will also discuss hardware, software and board-level considerations that exist while migrating between these processors and designing a common board for these processors. 

This session will introduce the latest Freescale 32-bit MCU designed for instrument cluster applications. We will spend time looking at the features and review the typical application configuration, software strategy and Freescale enablement built for this instrument cluster solution.

Android provides a powerful operating system and development environment that can be used to develop connected IoT products very quickly. It further allows developers build up feature-rich HMI solutions with multi-display capabilities, for example it allows dual full-HD HDMI operation on the DIGI ConnectCore 6 SOM. There is a risk that resulting embedded products are open to external attack or user modification. This presentation will discuss the key components of the Android operating system and show how to implement network-enabled embedded applications based on SE Android (Security Enhancements for Android), a completely open-source project that provides a sandboxed application runtime environment preventing unauthorized modification of devices and/or execution of potentially malicious code.

As automotive applications become more complex, an increasing number of solutions require the use of external memories for cost-efficient program and data storage. This presentation reviews the characteristics of memory used in Freescale automotive processors and controllers and summarizes the application benefits of each. Memories interfaces and technologies included are: SDRAM, QuadSPI, I2C, SD and SDIO, NAND Flash and USB.
