How can we improve the NXP Semiconductors site?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

    1. Don't open new windows in parametric search, but open new tabs

      With the evolution of new browsers, I think is better to open new tabs instead of opening new windows, i.e. when selected Parametric Search

        Update: we will use the suggestions to offer parametric search as part of the tabbed structure in our new website. This will be build in a next parametric search release.

        Thanks for all the great contributions.

        Update: we allow opening the parametric search in a new tab for the parametric ‘text links’.

        We tested some of your suggestions and encountered usability limitations (technically what browsers support) that we don’t see as a real improvement for our users.

        Furthermore we’ve decided to plan for a dedicated parametric search release in which we further integrate it in the website.

        Update: We open a new window to maintain your browser history. However, we are working on a solution to allow you to force it in a new browser tab.

        Good suggestion, we are looking in to this.

      • Don't group products by market

        Example: MOSFETs are grouped into automotive and standard. Engineers do not care what a semiconductor was meant for, they just want to see them all in one big table.

        If a BUK661 is used on a medical device or on an aircraft instead of riding in a car I think it will emotionally survive :-)

          We already intend to do this by offering our products by function. We will look into this ‘all MOSFET’ page for sure.

        • Only show the basic type numbers and NOT all the package version

          Look for example at:
          http://www.beta.nxp.com/products/interface_and_connectivity/i2c/i2c_temperature_voltage_monitors/#products

          There you find over 15 time the SA56004, but only difference is the pacakge. In this table, for me, this is redunant information, as I only want to make a basic selection at this moment. The many version make me loosing the helicopter view of the different prodocts

            Thank you for your suggestion. We’ll look into this.

          • Product tab should always be visible

            For example when clicking "bipolar transistors". There should be a way to immediately see all of them. Categorizing by markets or types is not helpful.

            Also, start with transistors and not already split into low VCEsat and "regular" ones. Engineers prefer to see it all together and then select, not the other way around.

            Some praise: The beta site is a heck of a lot faster than the rather sluggish regular NXP site.

            But as someone already suggested, don't use Java or anthing fancy. Engineers don't need fluff :-)

                • Search on SMD component print

                  I would like a search option on component print of SMD devices, especially the smaller ones, so that you can find out from the cryptic printing what device you're looking at. If this is allready possible, please tell me how.

                  • Information about Linux for Arm Products

                    I would like to see more information about the linux and other software for the microcontrollers. Like a new area on the site where I can find compilers , linux kernels , tutorials, how to's, etc .
                    Who needs a microcontroller want to know about the available software and compilers. No use having a microcontroller if I do not know how to compile code for it. It is also important to know if there is any linux ported to the chip.

                      • Parametric search not complete

                        If you do a parametric search for LPC175x/6x/7x/8x, the SPI , I2C and Vcc fields are empty. It might give the wrong impression that these peripherals are not supported.

                          • Parametric tables very slow

                            Your web developers should try the site in Australia. The issue is not bandwidth but latency. Pages making multiple requests are slow at overseas locations.

                                • Parametric page - extend selected item functions

                                  The check-box to the right of the part number currently only allows for manual filtering.

                                  I think it would be useful to allow for other group operations such as: Open all selected, download all selected datasheets, etc.

                                  • Parametric page layout - heading & left tab should be fixed when scrolling

                                    The heading row and left hand column should be fixed, so when the window size is smaller than the parametric table, scrolling down or to the right leaves these two display items on screen (akin to freezing panes in excel when working with large tables.

                                    This could be extended to user selectable content in the frozen sections (search criteria, selected columns or selected rows, etc).

                                      I like that the Type Search box offers a list of matching items but if I type in 'L' it offers me the first 5 "LM" items. Maybe it should offer me the list of next valid letters. For example "LM", "LP" etc.

                                          A search query could be saved as My Search or published as RSS feed (giving new results via RSS). Also search via opensearch could help making search query results published on other websites.

                                          • ORCAD symbols for LPC1788

                                            Hi!

                                            It would be great to make ORCAD symbols for LPC177x/8x available.

                                            I expected it to be in this ZIP (http://ics.nxp.com/support/documents/microcontrollers/zip/orcad.symbols.lpc17xx.zip), but LPC1751-8 and LPC1764-8 are available.

                                              Thank you for your interest in OrCAD symbols for the LPC1788. Unfortunately, at this time, we do not have them available. They are planned for the future, but no date is set. Valuable input like yours is important to us to help us prioritize the development of these files, so your suggestion is greatly appreciated
