NXP’s N-AFE analog front end made for factory automation can be configured for different types of inputs such as voltage, current, resistance, RTD and more to enable a software-defined factory. Also, improved product quality is expected and this is possible thanks to enhanced accuracy and precision in the manufacturing floor measurements. In addition, predictive maintenance is making it possible to identify issues before they occur to avoid downtime. NXP’s N-AFE advanced diagnostics and anomaly detection features enables predictive maintenance for an efficient smart factory.

Several options are available: low power or high speed, 24 or 16 bits resolution, with or without voltage/current excitation, all of them with the same package and pin-to-pin compatibility.
