Understanding ECU: From Simulink Model to Automotive Controller

Understanding ECU: From Simulink Model to Automotive Controller

The application software development for automotive controllers typically employs a model-based design approach. Most application software developers focus primarily on the Simulink model level and do not pay attention to how the generated code works and how it runs on the controller. In fact, it is essential for application software developers to understand these issues, … Read more

What Happens During ECU Power Up and Down

What Happens During ECU Power Up and Down

The startup of the ECU definitely begins with the chip’s BootROM. I have previously written about the startup process of the Infineon Tricore series (if interested, click back to —>What Does Infineon TC27X Need to Do to Start). After the main chip kernel is initialized, what needs to be done for software initialization? In today’s … Read more

Introduction to Makefile Structure in Compilation and Linking

Introduction to Makefile Structure in Compilation and Linking

Introduction Many engineers without formal education in computer science are actually not familiar with the compilation and linking of projects (including the author). However, if we want to create our own projects or implement a project from 0 to 1, or if we want to optimize programs, modify the memory layout, or implement memory protection … Read more

Comparison of MQTT and SOM/IP Communication Protocols

Comparison of MQTT and SOM/IP Communication Protocols

[Background] During the discussion of a control command, we proposed to use the SOME/IP protocol, but the other party suddenly suggested using the MQTT protocol for transmission. This proposal was something we had not encountered before, which left us a bit confused. Therefore, classmate Jiahui conducted an investigation and comparison of the two protocols and … Read more

Embedded Development: Understanding MCU Power Up and Down

Embedded Development: Understanding MCU Power Up and Down

In engineering, there are many issues related to sleep and wake-up. In the vehicle’s network topology, many nodes have similar problems. For example: Reusing SPI leads to communication loss, nodes cannot sleep, node startup time exceeds the required time, nodes occasionally cannot wake up, and so on. These engineering issues are sometimes viewed as network … Read more
