In order to achieve a zero-emissions future, the automotive industry must reinvent itself. Automakers must bring to the market new differentiated electric models fast. NXP and Wolfspeed collaborated to deliver a fully tested 800 V Traction Inverter Reference Design that mitigates many of the hurdles facing an EV system architect. Anatomy of the power inverter […]

The ongoing transformation of the automotive industry and the E/E architecture towards CASE (connected, autonomous, shared, electrified) requires enormous efforts and investments. Whereas such transformation is considered indispensable, it creates high-cost pressure on “legacy systems”, especially for entry to mid-range car lines. Cockpit-related modules such as in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) and digital cluster systems are facing […]

As described in the first blog of this series, there is a growing demand for network function in a 100MHz class MCU. However, it is not realistic to develop the networking capability for every IoT device. In general, it is common practice that the basic functions including the networking function are provided in the form […]

The world of IoT and industrial automation is evolving at an unprecedented pace, demanding high-performance, secure and scalable solutions. Developers today need powerful yet cost-effective platforms that streamline wireless integration and system prototyping. NXP’s FRDM i.MX91 development board, the latest addition to the FRDM ecosystem, makes designing connected solutions easier, faster and more efficient than […]

The Need for Advanced Motor Control Modern chainsaws operate in some of the most demanding conditions imaginable. There are unique challenges, with loads that can change dramatically in a fraction of a second. From the initial plunge into hardwood to encountering knots and varying densities, a chainsaw’s motor must adapt instantly while maintaining precise control. […]

Electronics design engineers want it all: programmability, low power, low cost, small footprint, fast time-to-market, and a quick and easy product configurability process – without learning new software. At Renesas, that’s exactly the need we address with our GreenPAK™ line of configurable ICs and the ForgeFPGA™ family of low-density programmable logic. Created by Silego, which […]

I believe that all people seeking knowledge should have the opportunity to learn and grow, regardless of who they are or where they live. A value that I hold is that if you know something, you have the responsibility to teach it. Living to this value does not require you to be the best teacher […]

The two-wheel and three-wheel vehicle market is undergoing a technological transformation, driven by the need for greater safety, enhanced rider experiences, electrification, and sustainable, economical urban transportation. Next-Gen DCC Enables Safer, Smarter and More Connected Two-Wheel Vehicles The shift from legacy instrument clusters to digital connected clusters (DCCs) has accelerated in recent years to meet […]

The rapidly evolving automotive landscape is shifting from the traditional distributed architecture to centralized compute architecture coupled with domain integration. There is also mass deployment of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) – the drive towards more autonomy. These transformations in turn are fueling the change from a hardware-central model to a software-defined vehicle (SDV) model. All […]
