Step-by-Step Installation Instructions
1
Install Software and Tools
Install S32 Design Studio IDE for Power Architecture.
S32 Design Studio for Power
See Software Installation Guide (SWIG) for detailed procedure
2
Connect the Debugger
Connect the debugger (e.g. P&E USB Multilink) to the board.
3
Observe the Default Program reaction
The pre-loaded example project utilizes the S32R’s multiple cores
Once the board is plugged in, the S32R’s PLLs will be programmed
to max frequency. The CLKOUT pin will display the frequency of
each PLL in a round-robin fashion as each core takes turns
controlling CLKOUT.

S32R372141EVB Board : Overview
The S32R372141EVB is
NXP’s evaluation board
for the S32R372 radar
processor. It is designed
to be paired with an
analog front end. NXP
supports the TEF810 and
MR3003 radar
transceivers, but thirdparty options are possible.
This EVB features I/O
headers, trace ports, and
CAN ports to meet any
prototyping needs at a low
cost.

Note: “DNP” stands for “Do not populate”, meaning pin is disconnected by default. You must
solder on the relevant component to the solder points.

S32R372141EVB: Power Supply
The S32R372141EVB supports two power options. You can generate 12V from a DC
generator and connect that to P2; or you can plug in a 12V power supply through
the barrel connector P1. NXP does not directly sell 12V power supplies. You can
obtain a power supply through a third-party vendor.
Power supply specifications:
Fully regulated Switching Power Supply
Input Voltage 100-240V AC 50/60Hz
Output 12V 1A/2A DC
Plug size: 5.5mm x 2.1 mm, Center Positive

Recommendations
• For faster debugging, debug from RAM, because this cuts down the lengthy Flash erase operation
cycles. Follow the Software Integration Guide (SWIG) for details.
• By default “New Project” in S32 Design Studio IDE makes application to run at 16 MHz Internal RC
(IRC) oscillator. For faster performance, configure PLL to desired frequency and switch clock source
to PLL before executing application code.
• Keep S32 Design Studio IDE and OpenSDA firmware Up-to-date for best results
• Post Technical Questions on NXP community for MPC5xxx.
