An important criterion for the board selection is the processor performance.
We offer a wide range of NXP processors:
Processors
Here you will find the right processor for your project - NXP processors are very versatile and offer solutions for the most diverse requirements: extremely low power consumption, high performance for multimedia applications, asymmetric multiprocessing, or artificial intelligence.
We offer solutions for industrial and medical applications.
All our NXP embedded modules are long-term available and we are ISO9001:2015 and ISO13485:2016 certified.
The members of our product families are compatible with each other and suitable for a wide range of requirements. Our armStone product family for example includes powerful PicoITX single board computers, while our tiny (only 35x40mm) PicoCore Computer on Modules also offer particularly power-saving models.
For each of our embedded boards, we offer development kits to enable an easy start of development. This is supported by our free support forum, which is maintained by the F&S engineers. They also help you via e-mail or phone.
All F&S Linux embedded modules are available with Buildroot or Yocto and include the board support package and the toolchain for Bare Metal or FreeRTOS (realtime). F&S publishes up to two software releases per year (update of uboot, kernel, root file system, toolchain).
