Transformation of Engine Control Unit (ECU) into Electronic Control Unit (ECU)
The Electronic/Electrical (E/E) systems within automotive now have more than 10 million lines of software code!
As an embedded technology partner for our global automotive customers, we have witnessed this transformation over the past 10 years
For such complex E/E systems robust network communications and diagnostic software protocols are critical for tracking and controlling of vehicle parameters.
.
Library of ECU communication and diagnostics stacks
In compliance with Automotive and International Standards (SAE and ISO), we have designed and developed a suite of pre-tested and pre-packaged vehicle network communication and diagnostics protocols
All the stacks can be readily integrated with any Automotive ECU and tooling applications
J1939 stack
The
SAE J1939 complaint
software stack and boot loader has ensured reduction in software development costs and time for our global customers.
Following are some success stories of J1939 stack integration
- Android based Infotainment platform – J1939 stack helps the IVI platform to fetch vehicle parameters and diagnostics information. The stack is integrated with Linux/Android operating system, and around 50 PGNs are configured.
