Softing Automotive’s Post

As software integration in vehicles increases, flash programming faces significant challenges, especially in time-critical manufacturing. By 2030, luxury vehicles may have up to 1000 million lines of code, with flash data volumes reaching 50 GB. Softing Automotive addresses this with a modern programming solution that combines high-speed wireless connectivity with advanced diagnostic functions.

Today I was learning about UDS Protocol: 📌 Introduction to UDS protocol: 📍 With rapid implementation of electronic embedded systems in vehicles the need to track and control vehicles different parameters was imperative. 📍 Diagnostic systems was developed so that the client could deduct the fault in the vehicles by connecting their diagnostic tester tool to the ECU's. 📍 But there are so many car manufacturers in the world each brand will have its own architecture and software in its ECU's. 📍 Client-Server Topology is maintained between the tester tool and ECU. The communication between these two is based on the service request which includes: i)Requesting for data. ii)Writing some data. iii)Running tests on the car component getting results back. iv)Flashing a program in the ECU. v)Clearing the memory. vi)Setting a schedule and many other things. UDS:It is a collection of diagnostic services which defines. ✍ What are available services. ✍ Format of request message. ✍ Format of response message ✍ What must be timing parameters ✍ Service handling by Tester and ECU. ISOI14229 published 5 documents in that Part-1 contain UDS services. Remaining topics will be discussed regularly in further posts.

It was an honour for me to present my Implementation of the SEA:ME Car Head Unit project to the SEA:ME Audience today. The SEA:ME Car Head Unit project requires the Programmer to develop a Vehicle Infotainment App for a Robot Car. But that's not all. The Programmer must also develop the HAL for the Chips controlling the Car's Gear, Throttle and Steering system and then design the HMI to enable a Driver drive the Robot Car safely. An additional feature was to also add an ambient lighting functionality to top it up. I decided to take on the project because I saw it as a good opportunity to strengthen my general Hardware engineering and Software architecture designing skills in Automotive DES. Building the App was straightforward. First I wrote the HAL in C for modulating the Pulse Width of the PCA9685 Chip powering the robot car's Throttle Motor and Steering Servo. For this I used a datasheet and bare metal C approach. Then I used C++ language both for calling the APIs I had exposed from the C HAL, and also for controlling the GUI part with the use of Qt signals. For the C++ implementation, I used a Composite Method Design Pattern that I structured using the Diamond Inheritance hierarchy, making it adhere to most of the contemporary software designing standards. Lastly, I used QML to design the HMI. The full code implementation, documentations and live demo can be found on my github repo at https://lnkd.in/eSRjSjGE

🚨 AUTOSAR OS DoorLock_Indication Project using OSEK/VDX 🚗 📣 Hello everyone! I am thrilled to show you what I've been updating on my old version of the project (Check it out in my posts) which only works on Application Sw layer, I accessed service layer through AUTOSAR OS (OSEK/VDX), this project works on STM32F4DiscoveryBoard with it’s OS trampoline. Beside understanding and implementing ARXML, Implementing runnable and RTE generation, I'm also understanding and implementing OIL(OSEK Implementation Language), Dealing with system counter, OS Alarm, OS Events and OS Tasks. 📋 Operating principle:  1- Setup TickperBase and TickperCount for System timer 2- System counter fire OScyclic_Alarm every 10 msec 3- Alarm sets OS_Timing_Event which Cyclic_Task waiting it 4- Cyclic_Task calls DoorLock_Indication() and ReadDoorSensor() Runnables 5- If ReadDoorSensor() sense that door is opened, send data through Sender_Reciever Interface to DoorLock_Indication() 6- DoorLock_Indication() invoke operation in Client_Server Interface, so CallBack function is called 7- CallBack function sets OS_OperationInvoked_Event which OIE_Task waiting it 8- OIE_Task calls LedSwitch_Runnable(), which access DIO to switch vehicle interior LED state 🙏🏻Special thanks go to my supervisor, Prof. Keroles khalil, whose unwavering support, guidance, and mentorship have been invaluable throughout this project. Also thanks to Eng. Mahmoud Ali for his support and valuable sessions in AUTOSAR 🎥 Check out the video to witness the project in action!  👨💻 Project_Repo: https://lnkd.in/dKHPzjZc #AUTOSAR #OS #Embedded_Systems #OSEK_VDX #Learn_In_Depth #Automotive #OIL #ARXML
