2.3 Download and Install the Elektrobit tresos Studio and Real-Time Drivers (Only AUTOSAR® Users Only)

Download and install Elektrobit tresos Studio/AUTOSAR Configuration Tool from S32K3 Standard Software Package.

S32DS Tresos Installer

Download and install the .exe file of the S32K3 Real-Time Drivers for Cortex-M from the S32K3 Standard Software Package.

The installer will ask for the EB tresos installation directory on your disk, saving time in configuration.

Note: You will receive an activation code via email. If you installed RTD prior EB tresos, create a SW32K3_RTD_4.4_x.y.z.link file in: C:\EB\tresos\links folder with the content: "path=C:/NXP/SW32K3_RTD_4.4_x.y.z", where x,y,z refers to installed RTD version.

2.4 Get the Run-Time Debugging Tool

FRDM-A-S32K344 performs better when using the FreeMASTER Run-Time Debugging Tool.

Note: Check the FreeMASTER page for the latest version.

DOWNLOAD FREEMASTER TOOL

The FreeMASTER communication driver for S32K3 microcontrollers is also needed. Download it from the Automotive SW → S32K3 → S32 FreeMASTER link in the S32K3 Standard Software Package.

Open S32DS Extensions and Updates dialog (Menu → Help → S32DS Extensions and Updates), click on the Add Update Sites link and navigate to the FreeMASTER communication driver for S32K3 (zip file starting with "com.") on your disk.

Install the FreeMASTER communication driver for S32K3.

Aditional optional software may be downloaded from the S32K3 Reference Software Package.

3. Plug It In

3.1 Plug in the Power Supply

The S32K344MINI-EVB is a rapid prototyping board based on the S32K344EVB-Q172. As it is not intended for final production use, the board includes a primary power supply option via USB Power Delivery, connected to the FS26 SBC.

By default, the FRDM-A-S32K344 is powered via the J11 USB-C connector. It is recommended to use the USB-C cable included in the box, or any cable that supports USB Power Delivery (PD), to ensure full functionality of the board. Using a non-compliant cable may result in limited current supply and reduced performance.

To power the board properly, a USB-C PD compatible power source is required, such as a USB-C PD charger or a laptop with PD support. While most modern laptops support USB PD, please verify your device’s capabilities before use.

The FRDM-A-S32K344 supports input voltages up to 20 V. However, based on FS26 SBC recommendations, it is ideal to operate within 9 V, 12 V or 15 V ranges with at least 1 A. Achieving these voltages and current requires proper negotiation between the USB PD source and the PD PHY (PTN5110). For guidance on implementing this negotiation with the S32K344, consult your local NXP FAE or the code available in the NXP Application Code Hub web site.

3.3 Connect the Debugger Cable

The board features an integrated On-Board Debugger along with standard JTAG connectors. This setup enables seamless serial and debug communication between a USB host and the target embedded processor, in this case, the K26 microcontroller.

Connect the USB-C cable included in the box to the connector or any USB-C data cable.
