The Automotive Processing, Model-Based Design Tools Team at NXP Semiconductors, is pleased to announce the release of the Model-Based Design Toolbox for S32K1xx version 4.3.0. This release supports automatic code generation for S32K1xx peripherals and applications prototyping from MATLAB/Simulink for NXP S32K1xx Automotive Microprocessors. This new release adds support for RDDRONE-772B Battery Management Systems (support for MC3377xC), Code deployment directly from Simulink via JTAG/SWD (OpenSDA, PeMicro Probe, or SEGGER JLink), SIL/PIL support for the latest MATLAB versions, new community and customer requested features (Enhanced support for SBC, FCAN Blocks, UART Blocks, I2C Blocks) and many other various new functionalities to help customers with rapid prototyping with NXP S32K1xx microcontrollers.

Release Content
We added examples for the RDDRONE-BMS772. This is a standalone BMS reference design suitable for mobile robotics such as drones and rovers, supporting 3 to 6-cell batteries. MBDT examples cover applications like BMS, LCD, CAN and SBC.
Special Simulink Blocks have been added to simplify the way a user can initialize such a controller, read vital parameters (like cell voltage, stack voltage, temperature, current), and manage the whole system. The entire suite of blocks is easily integrated within the new Battery Management Toolbox from Mathworks, so users can leverage these algorithms on top of our blocks. 
We improved the FCAN communication support by addressing the following:
We added support for deployment over JTAG directly from Simulink. In the main Config block, under Target Connection, the JTAG option must be selected. Following this action, the JTAG Interface selection becomes active. Here is the following selection:
We extended support for our toolbox to cover a wider range of MATLAB releases – starting from R2016a and going up to R2022a. This way we want to avoid locking out users that have constraints regarding MATLAB versions.
In our efforts to make NXP’s Model-Based Design Toolbox for S32K1xx version 4.3.0 fit the needs of the users, we have added the following requested features/updates:
Approximately 300 examples are available as part of the toolbox that exercises all the functionalities supported. 
For more details, features, and how to use the new functionalities, please refer to the Release Notes document attached.
MATLAB® Integration The NXP Model-Based Design Toolbox extends the MATLAB® and Simulink® experience by allowing customers to evaluate and use NXP’s S32K1xx MCUs and evaluation boards solutions out-of-the-box with:
Target Audience This release (4.3.0) is intended for technology demonstration, evaluation purposes, and prototyping for S32K116, S32K118, S32K142, S32K144, S32K146, S32K148, S32K142W, and S32K144W MCUs and Evaluation Boards.
