The ECU Interface Manager from dSPACE helps simplify the workflow and accelerate ECU function development projects.
- Enables control engineers to insert bypass hooks intuitively and quickly, directly into the compiled ECU hex code, for incremental ECU function development
- Features easier, faster hex-code-based bypass service integration for on-target prototyping and external bypassing
- No access to either source code or build environment of ECU software is required
- Integrates bypass services and service calls, also known as bypass hooks
- Supports internal bypassing (on-target prototyping), in which free RAM and flash memory areas in ECU are used to implement controller algorithms
- Allows external bypassing as well as external bypassing for algorithms developed on external rapid prototyping system
- Users can switch back and forth between these internal and external without having to modify controller model
- Analyzes ECU hex code and associated ECU description file (A2L file)
- Finds function calls, read/write accesses to ECU variables and conditional branches in ECU software
- Using a configuration file, ECU supplier can specify which information will actually be displayed in
- Detailed knowledge of ECU software not necessary
- Generates new HEX file and new A2L file containing bypass hooks at the push of a button
- Currently available for ECUs with Infineon TriCore microcontrollers
- Additional microcontroller families are planned to be supported in near future
- All functions available for bypassing at a glance
- Existing bypass services can be reused
- Supports more processor families: Freescale MPC55xx and MPC56xx, ST Microelectronics SPC56 and Infineon AURIX
