S32N55 Vehicle Super-Integration Processor
- This page contains information on a preproduction product. Specifications and information herein are subject to change without notice. For additional information contact support or your sales representative.
The S32N55 real-time super-integration processor accelerates the development of central vehicle controller applications in software-defined vehicle (SDV) architectures. It safely consolidates real-time vehicle control, management and services into a single system-on-chip solution.
The S32N55 processor combines high-performance real-time processing, a firewalled hardware security engine, an integrated multiport TSN Ethernet switch, extensive automotive communication interfaces and hardware isolation and virtualization for safe and secure integration of real-time vehicle functions.

Real-Time Applications Integration
- Full on-chip hardware isolation and virtualization for isolated, mixed-criticality applications
- Core-to-pin virtual hardware isolation technology supports freedom from interference
Functional Safety
- System manager, consisting of a lockstep Cortex-M7 processor core, manages functional safety
-
Hardware provides freedom from interference and virtualized Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms for shared resources
- Keeps fault impact at the integrated ECU level with local reactions
- Runtime operating mode, safe stop and reset all controlled individually for each integrated ECU, reducing the number of faults that lead to SoC reset
- Processor developed according to processes that are certified to ISO 26262 for ASIL D functional safety
Security
-
Integrated hardware security engine (HSE2) for Root of Trust (RoT)
- Secure boot, security services and key management
- Public key infrastructure and side-channel attack resistance
- Distributed security approach to provide increased availability of security services, increased parallelism of security operations, clearer prioritization between tasks and minimizes latency
- Developed according to cybersecurity processes that are certified to ISO/SAE 21434, UN R155 and also targeted for SESIP Level 2 certification
Communications and Networking
- Lockstep Arm Cortex-M7 to manage communication traffic
- CAN Hub virtualizes CAN I/O and allows applications to share the same CAN I/O pins, allows CAN frames to be routed to multiple FlexCAN controllers and offloads CAN-to-CAN routing from the host core
- 24x CAN FD, 4x CAN XL, 10x LIN and 1x 2-ch FlexRay® interfaces
- Integrated dual-port Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) Gigabit Ethernet switch
- 2x Ethernet MACs each operating from 10 Mbit/s to 2.5 Gbit/s and supporting MII / RMII / RGMII / SGMII / OC-SGMII
- PCI Express Gen 4 (Root Complex) x1/x2
