Measurement and calibration gateway
Seamless measurement and calibration for efficient µP-based control unit development
The ETAS Measurement and Calibration Gateway is a pure software solution designed for microprocessor (μP)-based control units, which are becoming prevalent in vehicle-centric E/E architectures. Featuring an XCP stack solution and an accompanying offboard toolchain, it allows for the measurement of variables and adjustment of parameters directly within an application during runtime.
Your benefits
Enable familiar workflows on new architectures
Measure and calibrate functions on μP-based control units with the same efficiency and methods as traditional embedded systems, offering the familiar "look-and-feel" of INCA to minimize training needs and ensure a smooth transition for development teams.
Accelerate functional validation and optimization
Support runtime analysis of new functionalities in μP-based ECUs and distributed vehicle functions directly in the vehicle.
Benefit from a complete, integrated solution
Leverage a holistic concept that combines the required software components with a powerful offboard toolchain for A2L file generation.
Simplify network configuration
Use only a single TCP port for measuring and calibrating all applications in a microprocessor (μP)-based control unit, reducing the complexity in the vehicle network.
A holistic solution for seamless integration and familiar workflows
The provided solution enables the measurement and calibration of functions that have been moved from traditional embedded ECUs to μP-based control units, as well as native POSIX applications. For users familiar with INCA, the solution offers the same look-and-feel, ensuring a smooth transition. It seamlessly integrates with the ETAS interactive measurement and calibration portfolio, supporting both global and local variables (heap, stack) and using a 2-page approach for calibration. The solution is designed to handle a data bandwidth of at least 10 MB/s.
Streamlining measurement and calibration in modern vehicle architectures
By providing runtime access, the gateway enables system optimization and validation directly in the vehicle, addressing the growing use of μP-based control units based on a POSIX OS and optionally running a middleware like AUTOSAR Adaptive.
Efficient development and validation for advanced ECUs
The solution consists of software components to be integrated into the customer's μP-based control units, libraries for data collection and calibration, and tools for variable definition and A2L file generation. By supporting virtual address space in POSIX-based systems and the measurement of variables within running application processes, it supports the functional runtime validation and optimization of new functionalities right inside a running process. This facilitates an efficient development process for applications on μP-based control units and distributed vehicle functions.
