The dSPACE MicroAutoBox acts as the central hybrid ECU during the development of new functions. |
Task
The main task in electric or hybrid electric powertrain development is to design the overall control strategy. The control functions are spread over a distributed network of electronic control units. An additional task is to integrate the control strategy into these distributed ECU networks.
Challenge
To develop the optimal ECU algorithms for electric motors, you need to test various different control strategies. You therefore need a development system that acts as a substitute for the future central hybrid controller. The prototyping system has to offer various interfaces and should be usable in-vehicle.
Solution
MicroAutoBox
MicroAutoBox
During function prototyping, a dSPACE MicroAutoBox takes the place of the central hybrid controller. It offers com-prehensive bus interfaces, and with its compact and robust design, it can be used in-vehicle.
The new functions developed with Simulink® are implemented on the MicroAutoBox with dSPACE Real-Time Interface (RTI).
