NXP MCU Families and Sub Families

Hi,

I'm more familiar with STMicroelectronics MCUs and i'm wondering if there are HAL librairies for NXP MCUs to facilitate development ?

Sub families which use same HAL lib like that : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STM32

The goal is to get the best overwiew of all NXP MCU Families / sub families because I'm developing a shell that should be used on ALL MCU and if i could test only one MCU  for all each sub families, as for STM32 :

It would be nice !

It sounds like that this it what i'm expecting : K32 L Series: Ultra-Low Power Microcontrollers (MCUs) optimized for low-leakage applications | NXP 

tell me if i'm wrong

Thanks for help.

Hello Thibaud Guérin 

 

Regarding the libraries, you can find useful the Software Development Kits (SDK).  The SDK is a comprehensive software enablement package designed to simplify and accelerate application development with NXP’s LPC and Kinetis® microcontrollers and i.MX RT crossover MCUs. SDK includes production-grade software with integrated RTOS (optional), integrated enabling software technologies (stacks and middleware), reference software, and more.

On the Kinetis groups, you can find different sub-families with different characteristics, I will enumerate you these families and their fundamental characteristics.

  • KE series with Cortex-M4/M0+, these MCU's focus on industrial applications since they

maintain high-reliability and robustness in harsh electrical noise environments. More detailed information of subfamilies are found here:

  • LPC MCU's. For this series of MCU's, it is worth taking a look at each family to know its capabilities.pastedImage_10.png

 

You can give a look at this page to see more MCU's  Arm Microcontrollers | NXP We also have MCU's for automotive and wireless applications.

 

Let me know if this is helpful, if you have questions do not hesitate to ask me.

Best regards,

Omar

Hello Omar Anguiano,

Seems that your answer is perfect. I'll go through it in detail when I'll be back on NXP MCUs.

Thanks for you answer,

Best regards,

Thibaud
