NXP Unveils the Future with Innovative Security, IoT, and Automotive Solutions at CES 2017
January 04 2017 - 11:34AM
(CES 2017) – At this week’s CES 2017 exhibition
and conference, NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ:NXPI) will showcase
how top global developers can deliver a future where everything is
secure, smart, and connected. From new solutions to new
partnerships, NXP is spearheading innovation for security, the
Internet of Things (IoT), and automotive.
NXP announcements at CES include:
New Collaborations to Build the Secure, Connected
Ecosystem for Cars and Devices
- At CES 2017, NXP announced it will advance security for the IoT
with Microsoft. The solutions will be demonstrated at CES and
combine the best of hard- and software security with other
capabilities such as voice control and self-learning algorithms,
for use in smart homes, connected cars, and smart connected
devices.
- From January 4-8, Microsoft, NXP, IAV and auto mobility
partners, Cubic Telecom, Esri, and Swiss Re, will showcase their
collective vision of safe and secure end-to-end mobility through a
highly automated driving demonstration and experience.
Vehicle-to-vehicle communications will continue to gain relevance,
especially in the U.S., since the U.S. Department of Transportation
proposed a rule to mandate the technology in new cars.
- The new Rinspeed “Oasis”, an ingenious self-driving electric
vehicle on display in Las Vegas, will use a wealth of NXP
technologies for enabling securely connected, self-driving cars,
including radar “cocooning”, V2X communications, automotive NFC,
NXP BlueBox Sensor Fusion, long-range RFID and many more. Advanced
sensing technology allows the system to capture a 360-degree view
of the vehicle’s surroundings with pinpoint precision.
- To drive innovation for future wearable technologies, also NXP
revealed results from a new R&D test bed that supports
development of products and applications using embedded Secure
Element (eSE) technology, which underscores the company’s ongoing
commitment to invest in the future development of secure payment,
transit, authentication and other services for connected devices.
Some of NXP’s latest successes resulting from the test bed are
highlighted by solutions developed by its partners Palago and
uConekt Inc.
Breakthrough Solution in Automotive to Simplify
Development
- NXP announced the SAF4000 – the world’s first fully integrated
software defined radio solution capable of covering all global
broadcast audio standards, including AM/FM, DAB+, DRM(+) and HD.
The new IC represents a breakthrough in simplifying the development
of high-performance infotainment platforms as it combines six ICs,
thus replacing today’s multi-chip solutions with a single
ultra-compact RFCMOS device.
Advanced IoT Semiconductors to Meet Heightening Consumer
Expectations
- NXP introduced the i.MX 8M family of applications processors
specifically designed to meet increasing audio and video system
requirements for smart home and smart mobility applications. NXP’s
i.MX 8M family addresses the major inflection points currently
underway in streaming media: voice recognition and networked
speakers in audio, and the move to 4K High Dynamic Range (HDR) and
the growth of smaller, more compact form factors in video.
- The company also introduced the new roadmap for the LPC MCU
portfolio based on the LPC800 and LPC54000 series with a robust
pipeline of ARM® Cortex®-M-based devices for next-generation
consumer and industrial IoT applications.
- To help make connections faster and more reliable on
smartphones, tablets, wearables and small Internet of Things (IoT)
devices, NXP announced its new wireless local area network (WLAN)
Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) with Integrated Switch.Additionally the
company introduced the easiest way to add Near Field Communications
(NFC) technology to Hexiwear wearable devices with the new
MikroElektronika NFC click, powered by NXP. The new module is a
mikroBUS™ add-on board with a versatile NFC PN7120 IC controller
that makes it easy to incorporate NFC, removing barriers to
adoption.
New Solutions that Bring Ultimate Convenience to
Charging Devices
- NXP unveiled the industry’s first Type-C USB solution that
fully charges mobile, computing and virtual reality devices in less
than an hour. The end-to-end solution is the smallest in market and
includes unique rapid charging coupled with USB PD PHY for the
first fully compliant Type-C Port Controller (TCPC)
implementation.
- Also at CES 2017, NXP introduced the first high-power wireless
charging solution for notebooks and 2-in-1 tablets, with up to 100W
of delivered power, covering a wide range of power supply
requirements for this segment. At <2mm in thickness and low
component count, the solution is capable of fitting into the
tightest industrial design constraints. Wireless charging has been
a popular addition to smartphones and other small portable
electronics. Portable computing devices, however, need considerably
more power than available from smartphone chargers. This new NXP
solution now allows consumers to have a truly cord-free experience
with notebooks and 2-in-1 tablets, even with their higher power
consumption requirements.
CES Showcase and Demonstration
- NXP will showcase more than 100 demos from the smallest
microcontrollers to the complex networking infrastructure that
powers the new smarter world in the Smarter World Tour truck. In
addition to the truck, NXP will also have an adjoining pavilion to
showcase a variety of solutions. Also, new this year, NXP will
demonstrate ADAS technology at the Autonomous Vehicle Marketplace
in the North Plaza.
A number of NXP experts are available throughout the show to
deliver demos, comment on breaking news and brief the media and
analysts on NXP technology. To book a meeting or demonstration
session, please contact: nxp@hoffman.com.
