Full Transparency with Automotive Ethernet - Finally Seeing What Is Really Happening

Automotive Ethernet – in contrast to CAN, LIN and FlexRay – is not simply another bus that sparkles with very high transmission rates. Rather development and testing departments are confronted with an entirely different network topology, which in many aspects requires a different approach to thinking and acting. This article describes, based on the example of a new flexible Automotive Ethernet interface, the specific challenges that developers face. It also demonstrates the ideal way to structure hardware and software and have them interact to achieve optimal development, simulation and test results under the new constraints. ...

Challenge of Ethernet Use in the Automobile - Flexible Interfaces and Software Tools Simplify ECU Development

Already this year, Ethernet will be used as a system network in the first production vehicles. Therefore, the next step is to integrate Ethernet with established technologies in the automotive industry: CAN, FlexRay, LIN and MOST. Functional development tools exist for them, which make it easy for developers to analyze heterogeneous networks. On the Ethernet side, however, only standard tools from office communications exist, but they do not support the special physical layers and IP protocols of the automotive world. Therefore, development and test tools are urgently needed that can be used to analyze and test existing bus systems together with Ethernet networks. But what would be the...

Validating automotive IP network elements - New perspectives on remaining bus simulation for networks with SOME/IP

Ethernet based on BroadR-Reach is already a reality in vehicles with camera applications, and it will reach other application areas as well. Specialized development tools even permit time-synchronous display of the communication of heterogeneous networks. To enable bandwidth efficiency, automotive IP networks – in contrast to static CAN communication – are set up in a dynamic and service-oriented way. Therefore, the development tools must also support service-oriented protocols such as SOME/IP.

A good combination – access to Ethernet and CAN with one device

Vector is introducing the new VN5610 device - a compact Ethernet/CAN interface with USB. Developers in the automotive and aerospace industries will benefit from simultaneous access to CAN networks and Ethernet-based systems such as Broad-R-Reach or AFDX® with just one interface. The new hardware can be used in tasks ranging from remaining bus simulations to Ethernet monitoring and synchronization of Ethernet frames with other bus systems such as CAN. In particular, developers will benefit from highly precise time stamps with a common time base for synchronizing the various systems.
