SOFTWARE ENABLEMENT

Time-sensitive networking drives a need

for real-time processing. The LS1028A

supports various real-time operating

systems (RTOSs). Open Industrial Linux

provides real-time performance with

Xenomai Linux, and application software

for configuring and managing the TSN

features on the LS1028A.

Another trend is toward smartphone-

inspired man-machine interfaces. For

that reason, the LS1028A integrates

a GPU and LCD controller. Moreover,

securing the industrial IoT is a paramount

concern for manufacturers. The NXP

Trust Architecture is designed to help

OEMs and their customers secure their

platforms and prevent them from running

unauthorized software. Secure boot is

available with the Layerscape SDK with

reference source code.
