S32G-VNP-EVB3 User Guide
by: NXP Semiconductors
1. Introduction
S32G is a high-performance vehicle network processor
that combines controller area network (CAN), local
interconnect network (LIN), and FlexRay networking
with high data-rate Ethernet networking. It also
combines a functional safe-core infrastructure with
MPU cores, and includes high level security features.
A platform for software development on S32G is
available from NXP, named the S32G Vehicle Network
Processor Evaluation Board (S32G-VNP-EVB3). This
hardware supports the most common S32G use cases
primarily by enabling the communication interfaces to
allow users to rapidly prototype software using the
features of S32G-VNP-EVB3.
This user guide provides detailed reference for usage of
the S32G-VNP-EVB3. This includes detailed board
configuration including connectors, jumpers, LED
indicators and S32G on-board programming.

S32G-PROCEVB3-S provides fan as an add-on accessory. It should be specifically used when working with S32G3x
silicon in stressed conditions. The fan can be turned off or not used when working with S32G2x or when working with
S32G3x under typical lab conditions (i.e., when the overall consumption on 0.8V rail can be limited to within 4.5 Watts).
Instructions to assemble heat sink with fan are available in "S32G-PROCEVB3-S –Silicon mounting guide”.

3. S32G-VNP-EVB3 Details
S32G-VNP-EVB3 is a combination of two boards
•S32G-PROCEVB3-S –the processor board
•S32GRV-PLATEVB –the platform board
3.1 Power connections from PMIC to S32G
Refer to section “Power Connections” in device Hardware Design Guidelines for power supply
connections from PMIC VR5510 to S32G.
3.2 Power connections for S32G-VNP-EVB3
When the S32G-PROCEVB3-S is stacked over S32GRV-PLATEVB, jumper J96 on S32G-
PROCEVB3-S should be kept in 1-2 position and only S32GRV-PLATEVB needs to be powered.
Connect power supply to 12 V power jack P3 on S32GRV-PLATEVB.
S32G-PROCEVB3-S can be powered independently and can also work standalone. For S32G-
PROCEVB3-S to work standalone, jumper J96 on S32G-PROCEVB3-S should be kept at position
2-3. Connect power supply to 12 V power jack P1 on S32G-PROCEVB3-S.
Refer to the following image for the position of J96 on S32G-PROCEVB3-S.
