ETAS Hardware Description Hardware Description This chapter provides an overview of FlexRay and the ES920.1 module and pro- vides you with information on its properties, connectors and the LED. Overview 3.1.1 FlexRay The complexity of vehicle electronics is permanently on the increase due to the increasing number, growing function scope and the networking of electronic ECUs in vehicles.
ETAS Hardware Description 3.1.2 Definitions FlexRay FlexRay is a scalable and fault-tolerant communication system for deter- ministic data exchange at high transfer rates. Using the time multiplex procedure enables the creation of distributed systems with a highly mod- ular structure and high safety demands. The high bandwidth of 10 MBaud...
ETAS Hardware Description ES920.1 3.2.1 Features The ES920.1 FlexRay Module, when accommodated in the extension slot of the ES910 Rapid Prototyping Module, enables rapid prototyping applications at Flex- Ray channels. Note The ES920.1 FlexRay Module can be operated in the extension slot of the ES910.2 and the ES910.3-A.
