Vector and SCSK have collaborated to offer an evaluation bundle for sensor and actuator software on Renesas RL78/F2x microcontrollers. This package integrates Vector’s Microsar IO stack with SCSK’s QINeS-Lite platform, streamlining the setup process for small electronic control units (ECUs) and minimizing the repetitive low-level tasks typically involved in ECU programming.
Key Highlights:
- Microsar IO: A lightweight stack designed for memory and processing-constrained applications, aimed at reducing software complexity and accelerating time-to-market.
- QINeS-Lite Features: Supports over-the-air updates, fast communication, cybersecurity, and diagnostics for edge vehicle networks.
- Hardware Abstraction: SCSK’s drivers interface Microsar IO with the Renesas chips, enhancing software reusability and aligning with the transition towards software-defined vehicle architectures.
The focus is on optimizing the smallest components in automotive electronics, which are essential for handling remote updates and security in modern vehicles. Developers can obtain the evaluation bundle from Vector, though specific pricing and availability details have not been disclosed.
