Matter is a single, unified, application-layer connectivity standard designed to enable developers to connect and build reliable, secure IoT ecosystems, and increase compatibility among Smart Home and Building devices. NXP offers scalable, flexible and secure system-level solutions that implement Matter and equip developers with unified hardware and software technologies such as AI/ML and intuitive HMI that enable the autonomous edge. These solutions are tailored for a variety of use cases such as energy management, home automation and appliances so device manufacturers can focus on product innovation and accelerating time to market.
Matter
End-to-end Solutions for Enabling the Autonomous Edge
Getting Started
Our investment in Matter starts with easing the development experience for adopting Matter in existing or new designs. With the breadth and scale of our portfolios, we scale to the system level to enable the autonomous edge - bringing intelligence to the edge. This approach provides developers with integrated platforms for the processing, connectivity and security requirements to go from prototype to production faster.
With the range of device types from sensors to gateways and everything in between, these recommended platforms are designed to quick start Matter-enabled designs. Start here to select the right platform for your project.
