ActiveSuspension ACTIVE-SUSPENSION

NXP provides sensor and microcontroller solutions to enable active suspension systems in high-performance vehicles. These systems automatically adjust dampening at each wheel to optimize ride comfort or handling based on road conditions, measured by NXP low-g sensors on dampers. NXP's 32-bit microcontrollers individually control the damper coefficient using specialized peripherals. A block diagram shows how NXP safety microcontrollers, FlexRay interfaces, pressure sensors and other components interact at each wheel to enable active suspension control.

Active Suspension

Last Updated: Dec 22, 2022

NXP solutions enable active suspension systems in today's high-end sports cars and sedans.
This offers an adjustable ride, optimized for comfort or handling performance by automatically
adjusting the vehicle's wheel and chassis movements according to road conditions.

NXP low g sensors mounted on dampers measure displacement acceleration, while 16-bit
single-core and MPC5xxx 32-bit single-core and dual-core MCUs with enhanced computing
power and specialized peripherals for control functions enable individual control of the damper
coefficient at each wheel.
