The Safety Peripheral Drivers (SPD) is a software

product containing software components to control
the safety related on-chip peripheral modules present
on the device and thus it complements the S32 Real
Time Drivers (RTD) product to provide software
support for all on-chip peripheral modules.
The users can use it to develop their own safety
solutions compliant with ISO 26262 functional safety.
It allows integration up to ASIL D automotive safety
integrity level. It is developed as Safety Element out
of Context (SEooC). The Safety Peripheral Drivers
software is designed to be integrable within
AUTOSAR® and non - AUTOSAR applications. It is
available for all NXP S32 Automotive Platform
devices.

Software Product Overview

The Safety Peripheral Drivers package provides two software modules which are also included in the
respective S32 Safety Software Framework (SAF, nxp.com/saf), see Figure 1.

Figure 1. NXP’s S32 SAF and SPD content

The software modules provided in SPD are:

• BIST Manager - Built in Self-Test Manager covering both LBIST (Logic BIST) and MBIST
(Memory BIST)
• eMCEM – extended Microcontroller Error Manager
