The session will provide an overview of the most recent developments to support Radar systems in the frequency range from 76 GHz up to 81 GHz. High level block diagrams and key specifications of NXP multi-channel transceivers will be presented. It will also be discussed how the NXP transceiver solutions can help to enable modern low power consumption sensors with robustness against frequency interference, small size, and high-performance due to scalability. In combination with NXP Radar micro-processors and mircro-controllers typical Radar system architectures will be introduced. Especially for the development of small and compact cocoon, nano radar sensors an example is presented which shows the combinations of NXP Radar tranceivers, NXP Radar processors and NXP power supply solutions. The presentation will also give an outlook to technology trends and future upcoming NXP Radar solutions.

The RF content of connected devices has been increasing dramatically the last couple of years. The increasing bandwidth demand has driven the requirements of the RF chain to higher levels. The RF MMICs from NXP Smart Antenna Solutions give designers of connected devices freedom of antenna placement while achieving higher performance. This class will show the increasing requirements and complexity and NXPs answer to this challenge. Watch Video Presentation

Though cryptographic algorithms like AES are crypto-analytically secure, real implementations must at least be tested against logical attacks such as API misuse. Smart cards and similar devices also face fault and side channel attacks. Such attacks exploit physical effects to manipulate the device or learn about secret information. As these attacks are very critical, customers in the smart card industry ask for third party evaluation (e.g. Common Criteria or EMVCo) to confirm high assurance levels. If passed, a certificate is issued by a trusted party. With the rise of the IoT, physical attacks and respective third-party witnessing of resistance might soon be relevant there as well.

Topics will range from system architecture, software design and debugging, to power optimization, sound detection, and voice triggering.

Electronics are part of everything we do nowadays, whether we are talking about mobile gadgets or a space rocket. Regardless of the complexity of the products designed, at some point, they have to be brought to actuality, so they have to be manufactured. This session addresses the impact of some of the most important printed circuit board attributes that affect quality, cost, and lead time.

Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), a set of IEEE® 802 Ethernet sub-standards, is making deterministic Ethernet possible – especially for the automotive and industrial markets. This session will cover the advantages of TSN and current TSN standards and products. Watch Video Presentation

AC/DC converters need to provide a defined and safe supply voltage from AC mains, varying from 90 to 264 V AC. Key requirements are efficiency, no-load power consumption and size. A new requirement for wall chargers is communication to the mobile, enabling faster charging by changing voltage or current. Most common AC/DC topologies are flyback and resonant. A flyback converter features lowest cost, but magnetics size becomes larger at higher output power. In that case, resonant converters are preferred, although efficiency is lower at low loads. NXP has invented a resonant concept that overcomes this issue. The presentation will introduce the mentioned AC/DC technologies and NXP’s product advantages.
