NXP Semiconductors GoldBox 3 Vehicle Networking Development Platform

NXP Semiconductors GoldBox 3 Vehicle Network development platform is designed for vehicle service-oriented gateways (SOGs), domain control applications, high-performance processing, and safety and security applications. The development platform provides high-performance computing power, real-time network performance, multi-gigabit packet acceleration, security, and rich input/output (I/O).

These targets include central gateways, domain controllers, FOTA, secure key management, smart antennas, and high-performance central compute nodes. The GoldBox 3 vehicle network development platform supports low power mode, multiple wake sources, and two M.2 modules. Typical applications include in-flight firmware (FOTA), automotive access points, security processors, service-oriented gateways, vehicle computing, and area gateways.
