1 IntroductionThe NXP MPC-LS VNP EVB brings an advanced automotive gateway solutionusing NXP's MPC5748G gateway microcontroller and LS1043Acommunications processor SoCs. The combination of a real-timemicrocontroller with microprocessor application processing enables newgateway use cases and service-oriented gateways. The complete MPC-LSVNP EVB solution consists of two boards - a Processor Module and a PlatformBoard with a wide array of automotive interfaces.This document provides detailed reference information for the MPC-LS VNPEvaluation Board (EVB) comprising a Processor Module and a Platform Board.This includes detailed board configuration including connectors, jumpers, LEDnotifications, board programming, and recovery instructions. The documentalso includes usage of software tools and environment for building, flashing,and debugging the board.To get familiar with the system, the user needs to follow the below work flow:1. Bring up the MPC-LS VNP EVB as described in the Quick Start Guide.(Requires MPC-LS VNP EVB)2. Install required software per section Software Requirements.3. Build Linux and MPC5748G images as per section How to Build.4. Flash images on LS1043A and MPC5748G per section How to flash theboard or perform board recovery on page 61. (Requires MPC-LS VNPEVB)5. Run demo application as per section How to Run Application. (Requires MPC-LS VNP EVB)References to “DCM” in this manual are legacy references to the MPC-LS EVB Processor Module.NOTE2 Hardware requirementsThe table below lists the hardware required:Table 1.
