Code efficiency

• Efficient fixed-point or floating-point production code directly from Simulink ^® /Stateflow ^® (with support for included MATLAB code, see optional module)

• Your specifications – models and diagrams – are directly translated into efficient C code

• Consistent, deterministic translations of models into stress-tested C code

• Errors such as typing errors, oversights, misunderstandings are avoided

• Concise, yet readable code

• Code reviews are easy to perform

• Intelligent scaling based on worst-case propagation of signal ranges and simulation-based scaling

• Shortens the time-consuming and error-prone scaling process

• Various test levels to test the production code against the specification (MIL, SIL, PIL)

• Malfunctions are found at the earliest stage

• Modular code generation, i.e., for specific subsystems

• Faster code generation, preserving approved code

• Developing models on a modular/component basis

• Distributed development by large teams is much easier, and large models can be handled more efficiently.

• Full support of multirate systems with intertask communication

• You can define tasks at block level

• Central container to handle variables, data structures, scaling formulas, tasks, functions

• You can manage complex data to plan and structure your projects

• Generation of code files and A2L files for Data Dictionary variables independently of their use in TargetLink models

• Simplified software integration and integration testing for code from multiple TargetLink models/subsystems and legacy variables

• The Modeling Only operation mode (not licence-protected) lets function developers prepare and design a model without generating production code for it.

• Easy model exchange in a workgroup (Simulink® and TargetLink users)

• Compliance with relevant standards such as ASAM-MCD 2MC (ASAP2), AUTOSAR, and MISRA

• Quality and interoperability guaranteed

• Support for modeling and code generation for AUTOSAR software components (SWC), and generation of SWC descriptions

• TargetLink bridges the gap between model-based design and AUTOSAR-compliant software development

• Support for modeling and code generation for Adaptive AUTOSAR-compliant C/C++ code (for information on supported features, please contact dSPACE)

• Closely resemblant modeling styles for non-, Classic and Adaptive AUTOSAR
• Simple and convenient Adaptive AUTOSAR code generation

• Calibration data exported as ASAM-MCD 2MC (ASAP2) file for calibration tools

• Automated and complete process with perfect consistency between model and calibration data

• Automatic model and code documentation

• Your projects are transparent and trackable

• Exchanging AUTOSAR SWC containers between TargetLink and SystemDesk

• Safe and convenient round trips for AUTOSAR software development
• Access to SystemDesk simulation for proper software integration testing

• Innovative interface concept for ports, measurement signals and calibration parameters

• Easily increase software reuse across different projects

• Export virtual ECUs from TargetLink and run them in VEOS in combination with other virtual ECUs and standard dSPACE tools like ControlDesk

• Easy testing and experimenting with TargetLink code

• Export of Functional Mock-up Units (FMUs) from TargetLink models based on the Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) standard

• Execution of TargetLink-generated code with offline and real-time simulators from third parties and dSPACE

• Integrating new functions directly into existing ECUs (using TargetLink and dSPACE ECU interface software)

• Seamless transition from prototyping to series production
• No need to perform complex software integration
