Software for Automotive Designs
Automotive Open System Architecture (AUTOSAR®) addresses the challenge of increasing software complexity by providing an open and exchangeable solution to standardize the software architecture for automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs). This empowers you to create innovative electronic systems that offer improved quality, performance, safety and security.
We designated select devices in our dsPIC33C family of DSCs as AUTOSAR-ready DSCs. These devices include dsPIC33CH dual-core DSCs (90+100 MHz) and dsPIC33CK single-core DSCs. With these devices, you can expect:
- Support for AUTOSAR (4.3.x) from our third-party partners
- Production-ready, ASIL B- and ASPICE- compliant Microcontroller Abstraction Layer (MCAL) drivers
- AEC-Q100 Grade 0/1 qualification
- ISO 26262 functional safety readiness with certified functional safety resources
- Support for implementing robust automotive security
- High-performance CPU with a large amount of memory and rich peripherals
AUTOSAR BSW
AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C DSCs support MICROSAR from Vector. MICROSAR Classic is the embedded software for your AUTOSAR Classic ECUs. It consists of the runtime environment MICROSAR Classic RTE and MICROSAR Basic Software Modules (BSWs). They cover the entire AUTOSAR Classic standard and contain many useful extensions.
AUTOSAR® OS
You can use the QORIX Classic OS for your ISO 26262-compliant ECUs. The OS is safety certified, and its development process is certified by EXIDA® and TÜV. The QORIX Classic OS incorporates all the functionalities of the OSEK/VDX standard and has several advanced capabilities. The QORIX Classic OS is designed as per AUTOSAR specifications and offered across Scalability Classes 1 through 4 to fit the different application requirements.
MCAL Drivers
Our MCAL driver packages for AUTOSAR-ready dsPIC33C DSCs comply with AUTOSAR 4.3.x.
These ASIL B- and ASPICE-compliant drivers with full source code are integrated with the EB tresos Studio AUTOSAR configuration tool from Elektrobit.
AUTOSAR for dsPIC33C DSCs
The MICROSAR Classic evaluation bundle from Vector includes a pre-integrated MICROSAR Basic Software Module (BSW) for dsPIC33C DSCs that works seamlessly with KSAR OS from KPIT and MCAL drivers from Microchip. The package consists of the MICROSAR Classic Runtime Environment (RTE) and BSWs that cover the complete AUTOSAR Classic standard and contain many useful extensions.
The MICROSAR Classic evaluation bundle provides you with valuable information about AUTOSAR, including the design and configuration process and the basic software. The evaluation bundle offers you the following advantages:
- Off-the-shelf evaluation bundle for immediate access to a high-quality AUTOSAR 4.x solution
- Well-integrated AUTOSAR solution through close cooperation between Microchip and Vector
- Complete evaluation bundle with all necessary software tools to support dsPIC33C DSCs
- Ability to evaluate the runtime and memory requirements of a dsPIC33C DSC-based AUTOSAR Classic ECU project
- Minimal learning curve thanks to a detailed example project
- Support for AUTOSAR-compliant and conventional description files
- Pre-integrated example project to reduce your development time
- Easy evaluation using the flexible and convenient Explorer 16/32 Development Board (DM240001-2) with the dsPIC33CK1024MP710 General Purpose PIM (EV74M01A)
