Know More About NXP in Canada
In 1965, Motorola’s Semiconductor Products Sector (SPS) established one of its first international locations in Canada. By taking advantage of Canada’s favorable R&D environment, several operations in Ottawa developed key networking IP for Motorola SPS and later Freescale Semiconductor, which formed when SPS spun out from Motorola in 2004. A software development team for network processors was added shortly thereafter. Freescale merged with NXP Semiconductors in 2015.
Today, the NXP Ottawa Technology Center is focused in two key corporate areas. The first is software and silicon IP development for dataplane processing. Our leading-edge development team in Canada focuses on acceleration engines used by QorIQ and Layerscape processors to improve performance in complex networks.
The second focus is autonomous vehicles/advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). NXP, through its acquisition of Cognivue, is developing key image cognition software and silicon IP that is used for our next generation vision solutions for the automotive marketplace. NXP also has sales and applications teams serving customers in Western Canada, the Greater Toronto Area, Ottawa, Quebec and the Maritimes.
