The NXP analog product development boards provide an easy-to-use platform for evaluating NXP products. The boards support a range of analog, mixed-signal and power solutions. They incorporate monolithic integrated circuits and system-in-package devices that use proven high-volume technology. NXP products offer longer battery life, a smaller form factor, reduced component counts, lower cost and improved performance in powering state-of-the-art systems.

This page will guide you through learning about how to set up the SJA1105SMBEVM board.

4.1 Preparing graphical user interface operating environment

If you want to download and run SW on the SJA1105SMBEVM you also need a JTAG-Debug adapter. The easiest solution is the PEMicro “USB Multilink Universal” USB-to-JTAG debug probe (http://www.pemicro.com/products/product_viewDetails.cfm?product_id=15320168), as this is already integrated into the S32 Design Studio IDE.

The following steps are required to bring the SJA1105SMBEVM into operation:

Installation of the software development environment S32DS for Power Architecture
Import the example project for SJA1105SMBEVM and build an executable file
Flash the executable and start it
Connect ethernet stations and send traffic
Modify the Software according to the special needs of the project

4.2 Install S32DS
