dSPACE offers universities powerful hardware and software tools at discounted prices, giving students access to the latest industry-standard tools and methods for developing and testing complex control systems. These tools are ideal for teaching and research purposes and make it possible to learn complex control concepts with ease, from the initial design using block diagrams to final online optimizations of the controller in real time.
What can I do with the dSPACE ACE Kits?
dSPACE ACE Kits make it easy to realize even the most complex open and closed loop control concepts, from the initial draft using block diagrams to the final online optimization of the controller in real time. To work with ACE Kits, you use easy-to-operate, intuitive Microsoft Windows® tools that can transfer your Simulink® models to the dSPACE real-time hardware in seconds. Observing the effects that parameter changes have on your system’s behavior becomes as easy as child's play.
The increasing demand of electrical power requires highly efficient power electronics. With the help of intelligently controlled power electronics, voltages can be transformed in such a way that the different control systems are always supplied with the required DC or AC voltages. dSPACE also offers a Power Electronic Kit that supports your projects with state-of-the-art tools.

The MicroLabBox is an all-in-one development system for the laboratory which unites compact size and low system costs with high performance and versatility. In addition to the classic automotive applications for RCP and HIL, whether processor-based or FPGA-based, the MicroLabBox is also used for projects in medicine, robotics, geophysics, or aviation.
Included Products
- Hardware: MicroLabBox (available as a front-panel variant and several top-panel variants)
- Software: Real-Time Interface (RTI), Platform API Package, ControlDesk
ACE Kit Power Electronics
The ambitious goal of 100% environmentally friendly mobility and power generation can only be achieved with efficient, reliable, and intelligent power electronics. The ACE Kit Power Electronics fulfills the requirements for highest switching frequencies in computation and I/O connectivity. Use the Vitis Model Composer, a Xilinx® Toolbox for MATLAB®/Simulink®, for FPGA programming, or rely on the topology-oriented simulation of the dSPACE Electrical Power System Simulation (EPSS) Package in combination with the MATLAB/Simulink Simscape Electrical toolbox to test power electronics circuitry.
Included Products
- Hardware: SCALEXIO LabBox, DS6001, DS6602, 2x DS6651
- Software: ConfigurationDesk, Platform API Package, ControlDesk, RTI FPGA Programming Blockset, Electrical Power System Simulation Package
ACE Kit Smart Charging
Highly developed charging communication is the foundation for high vehicle availability. Options such as charging with alternating or direct current, automatic payment methods or the choice from the most inexpensive tariffs to connection with a home energy management system are possible with the newest charging technologies. When developing intelligent charging in the context of research projects, not only implementation in line with the applicable standards plays an important role, but also the opportunity to build a deeper understanding of various logging options and extendible systems through open models. The ACE Kit Smart Charging provides the basic equipment for implementing and testing smart charging according to global charging standards. It can be combined with dSPACE real-time systems and supplemented by further test possibilities.
Included Products
- Hardware: DS5366
- Software: Smart Charging Interface Solution
