NXP S32K344 | Demoboard MR-CANHUBK344

Description

MR-CANHUBK344 is a general-purpose evaluation board targeted for mobile robotics applications such as autonomous mobile robots (AMR) and automated guided vehicles (AGV); factory automation, industrial vehicles and equipment such as forklifts, trucks and trains; energy management, and motor controller.MR-CANHUBK344 is based on the Arm® Cortex®-M7 S32K3 general-purpose automotive microcontroller (MCU), featuring advanced safety, security and software support.MR-CANHUBK344 includes 100BASE-T1 Ethernet (TJA1103) and six CAN FD ports (available in the S32K344). The six CAN ports are two each of CAN FD, CAN SIC (signal improvement) and CAN SCP (secure). Tunneling CAN over Ethernet using IEEE 1722 is one use case for this board. The SE050 Secure Element with Near Field Communication (NFC) as well as other general purpose peripheral interfaces are also accessible on DroneCode standard JST-GH connectors.
