1 Introduction
The S32G-VNP-GLDBOX is a compact, highly-optimized and integrated reference design board based on the
S32G274A Vehicle Network Processor. With the high-performance computing capacity and rich
input/output(I/O) of the S32G274A, this board is suitable for a variety of typical automotive applications, such
as service-oriented gateway, vehicle central computing nodes, domain controller, safety controller, black-box,
smart antenna, FOTA etc. It can be directly used by car-makers, suppliers and software ecosystem partners
to accelerate development for a shorter time-to-market.
This document describes the hardware features of the board specifications, block diagram, connectors and
interfaces.
