NXP

Microcontrollers, processors and embedded systems

About the manufacturer

NXP Semiconductors was established in the Netherlands in 2006 when Philips spun off its semiconductor business, whose research and manufacturing roots reach back to the 1950s. The company merged with Freescale Semiconductor in 2015, expanding its expertise in microcontrollers, processors and automotive electronics. It now develops devices for vehicles, connectivity, identification, security and embedded computing. Its heritage combines European semiconductor engineering with technologies originating from Motorola and Freescale.

The main technical solutions associated with NXP include microcontrollers and processors, interface and connectivity ICs and RFID and NFC ICs. Microcontrollers and embedded processors combine a computing core with memory, communication interfaces and control peripherals. This integration supports measurement, control algorithms, connectivity and human-machine interfaces. Device families scale from simple controllers to higher-performance embedded platforms.

Applications

NXP solutions are relevant to applications where component characteristics must be matched to the final equipment:

industrial automation
embedded systems
IoT devices
motor control
operator panels
measurement instruments
