S32 Studio Setup for Production with S32K1

[MihaiC]

Hi all,

I'm planning to develop an interior lighting application using NXP S32K1xx MCU.

For PoC I've used the following tools: 

S32 Design Studio for ARM v2.2 (with an update S32DS-IDE-ARM_2.2.2_D2312.zip) and S32_ISELED_RTM 3.0 

Hardware: ADK from INOVA. 

Everything was ok after I've figured out the proper tool setup. 

Now for production I'm intending to use same processor family (with 64 pins instead 100 used in the development) but I'm having difficulties to find a setup that will allow me to build the software. 

What is the IDE and Tools I have to install ? S32 DS 3.6.x or still use S32 DS for ARM with a patch ? I was trying various configuration with different SDKs but I wasn't able to get a solution where I can configure the MCU and compile an app starting from ISELED demo apps. Some SDKs can't be added to specific version of S32 DS, seems to be very tight bounded with the versions... 

I was advised to use S32K SDK ISELED Driver but this alone does not work. Is the someone who can tell me what is the full suites of tooling is required and the versions to handle the above project?

Any training, documentation will help. 

Thank you!

Hi @MihaiC,

Usually, ISELED is supported by a different team, so, if possible, please enter a ticket instead of a community thread.

This depends in your development route and needs, but if you are planning to use S32K1 ISELED AUTOSAR R21-11, you will need to install S32K1 RTD + S32DS 3.5. You can find this information inside the release notes for the SW:

ISELED driver uses RTD 2.0.0 P04, which in consequence uses S32 Design Studio 3.5 & update 4 for S32DS:

Hi @Julián_AragónM and thanks a lot for clarifications. If possible I would stay with my current stack S32 DS for ARM with a patch (S32DS_ARM_v2.2_UP1) and S32K1_ISELED_RTM_3.0.0 as Autosar is not needed in my project. 

With this setup I was able to create a PoC that runs on development board (INOVA) and lately able to change the MCU to S32K144_64 which is my target.

I'm not using the latest releases but as long this works I don't have a problem with that.
