NXP BlueBox 3.0 Automotive High Performance Compute (AHPC) Development Platform

Overview

PREPRODUCTION

The NXP BlueBox is a development platform series providing required performance, functional safety, and automotive reliability for engineers to develop automotive high-performance compute solutions for self-driving cars and zonal control architectures.

BlueBox 3 family is the latest addition to the series, incorporating the Layerscape^® LX2160A embedded compute processor together with the ASIL D ready S32G274A vehicle network processor for automotive service-oriented gateway, domain controller, safety co-processor, and expansion options to include additional perception and acceleration solutions.

The NXP BlueBox platform delivers the performance required to build zonal architectures, high-performance computing systems, analyze driving environments, assess risk factors, and then direct the car's behavior.

The BlueBox 3.0 is only available for purchase for approved customers. Each order will be reviewed prior to being fulfilled. We apologize for any inconvenience experienced as a result of this approval process.
