1. Introduction

S32G is a high-performance vehicle network processor
that combines controller area network (CAN), local
interconnect network (LIN), and FlexRay networking
with high data-rate Ethernet networking. It also
combines a functional safe-core infrastructure with
MPU cores, and includes high level security features.
A platform for software development on S32G is
available from NXP, named the S32G Vehicle Network
Processor Evaluation Board (S32G-VNP-EVB3). This
hardware supports the most common S32G use cases
primarily by enabling the communication interfaces to
allow users to rapidly prototype software using the
features of S32G-VNP-EVB3.
This user guide provides detailed reference for usage of
the S32G-VNP-EVB3. This includes detailed board
configuration including connectors, jumpers, LED
indicators and S32G on-board programming.
