Über dieses Buch

This book explains the topology behind automotive electronics architectures and examines how they can be profoundly augmented with embedded controllers. These controllers serve as the core building blocks of today’s vehicle electronics. Rather than simply teaching electrical basics, this unique resource focuses on the fundamental concepts of vehicle electronics architecture, and details the wide variety of Electronic Control Modules (ECMs) that enable the increasingly sophisticated "bells & whistles" of modern designs. A must-have for automotive design engineers, technicians working in automotive electronics repair centers and students taking automotive electronics courses, this guide bridges the gap between academic instruction and industry practice with clear, concise advice on how to design and optimize automotive electronics with embedded controllers.

Chapter 1. Vehicle Electronics Architecture
Objectives
At the end of the chapter, you will be able to answer the following questions
  • What are the most commonly known electronic control modules being used in a typical vehicle?
  • What are the functions performed by some of the commonly known control modules?
  • How does a typical vehicle’s high-level electronics architecture look like?
  • What are the buzz-words like ‘Fly-by-Wire’ & ‘X-By-Wire’?
  • What is the function of a high-side-driver, a low-side-driver, and an H-bridge?
  • How a lamp-dimming feature uses the pulse width modulation to control the dimming with the aid of the software?
  • What is the difference between a “straight-switch-wire” topology verses an “embedded function” topology?
  • Why is there a need of embedded controller in today’s automobiles?
  • What are the overheads involved in the process of developing an embedded function?
  • What is the meaning of an automotive term named “Key-off-load current”?

  • What is the role of a communication bus in a typical vehicle?
  • What are the concepts and applications of ‘Flash programming’ in an automotive design space?
  • How have the PROM, EPROM, EEPROM and Flash memories in automotive design space been used?
  • What is the purpose of a diagnostics trouble code in the area of vehicle electronics repair?
  • What are the tools used to read the diagnostics trouble code in a typical vehicle?
  • How does high level software architecture of an automotive module look like?
  • What is ‘Foreground & Background’ loop software architecture?
  • What are the installation locations of well-known modules?
  • What is the purpose of harnesses, connectors, and connector keying scheme?
  • What are ‘42V’ and ‘14V’ electrical systems?
  • What is the purpose of a ‘watch-dog timer’?
  • What is an On-Board Diagnostics (OBD)?
  • What is ‘OSEK, and ‘AUTOSAR’?

  • What are the different programming options available to program vehicle modules?
  • What are some of the software data flow diagrams of a typical control module?
  • What are the different files required for downloading in a typical module?
  • What are the uses of boot strap loader, primary bootloader, and secondary bootloader?
  • What is the flow of data from the tester to the vehicle module memory?
  • What are the module compatibility issues in the automotive design segment?
  • What is the concept of a universal module?
  • What does AEC-Q100 qualification mean for an automotive electronics module?
  • What are the industry standard programming tools to program a microcontroller?
  • What is the concept of a keep-alive memory, and a keep-alive circuit?
  • How many different modules and I/O devices have been used in a Nissan minivan?
  • Who are the key players of semiconductor devices used in the automotive industry?
  • Why not use the word Autonics for the automotive electronics just like avionics?
  • Why is there no cross compatibility of modules in automotive electronics architecture?
  • What is a universal solution for a common set of functions?

Chapter 5. Fundamental Blocks Design
Abstract
So far, we have studied the basic topology of many fundamental blocks exists in a typical electronics module. We can now go a little deeper into understanding the basic design of each block with a simple circuit design, to solidify our understanding with the topology.

Chapter 7. Module and Vehicle EMC Compliance
Abstract
We live in a world of oxygen and we cannot survive without it that is a universal truth. However, there is another truth that goes beyond geographical area, demographics, and technological achievements, where people cannot ‘live’ without the radio energy present around them. The radio energy around them can be found in the form of a cellular phone signal, a FM radio signal, a Wi-Fi hotspot, or a GPS signal. These high-tech gadgets, not only run on the battery power, but do require radio energy to get fully operational. The presence of ‘radio energy atmosphere’ around us plays a vital role in our daily lives.
