NXP Brings the i.MX RT1186 "Crossover MCU" to Its FRDM Platform for Easy Industrial Automation
NXP Semiconductors has announced a new FRDM development board, this time designed to ease evaluation of its i.MX RT1186 "crossover microcontroller" chip for industrial automation — its first FRDM board to feature any i.MX RT part: the FRDM-IMXRT1186.
"Industrial systems are becoming more connected, software-defined and intelligent," says NXP's Will Wang of the company's latest launch. "Developers are increasingly being asked to support deterministic networking, real-time control, cybersecurity, edge computing and multiple industrial communication protocols while reducing development time and accelerating deployment."

"At the same time," Wang continues, "early evaluation and development with high-performance industrial processors can be challenging. Traditional evaluation platforms are often designed to expose every device feature, but they may introduce additional cost and complexity during the early stages of development. To address these challenges, NXP introduced the...
