ECUs control specific functions in a vehicle, such as safety, security, comfort, or essential functions. And cars can contain hundreds of electronic control units, such as those for regulating windows, air conditioners, door locks, airbags, and engines.
With advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), in-car entertainment systems, remote diagnostics, and electric powertrains, vehicle architecture is emerging into high-performance, compact multicore digital platforms from distributed single-core ECUs. ECUs and sensors can communicate quickly via CAN, LIN, FlexRayTM, and Automotive Ethernet.
As most ECU functions are safety-related, they must be reliable. So, testing each function is critical. Functional testing allows manufacturers to identify and fix potential issues with ECUs before releasing vehicles to the market. Simulating sensor signals using defined voltages, currents, and frequencies is necessary. To simulate actuators, a specific load is applied (like the electronic drive motor of a window).
