NXP Semiconductors Universal Sensing Module

NXP Semiconductor Universal Sensing Module is a software-configurable analog input solution for high-precision sensing and edge intelligence. It supports versatile sensor inputs (voltage, current, temperature, resistance, pressure, and weight) and ensures reliable wired connectivity via CAN FD, 10/100Mbps Ethernet, and USB.

With an advanced NAFE13388 analog front end and an MCX N947 MCU, this module delivers high-accuracy, high-precision data, real-time diagnostics, anomaly detection, and predictive maintenance for industrial automation, lab instrumentation, home and building automation, and other industrial applications.

The NXP Semiconductor NAFE13388-UIM board enables quick evaluation of NXP analog front ends. This board interfaces with the FRDM-MCXN947 board using Arduino-compatible connectors. The solution is fully tested, modular, and expandable, speeding up system design with readily available libraries and evaluation tools.
