HighTec EDV-Systeme has announced a time-limited evaluation bundle for Autosar-based development using Infineon’s TC4x automotive processors, created with Infineon.
In Autosar development, besides a run-time environment and an application layer, ‘basic software’ is needed – which consists of pre-defined modules that are summarised in layers. The layers are intended to make it easier to migrate software to different hardware.
One of these is the ‘microcontroller abstraction layer’ (MCAL), which provides drivers for accessing a particular MCU’s memory, communication and IO. Autosar replaces all microcontroller-specific drivers in the MCAL.
The bundle includes the TC4x basic MCAL package, the EB tresos tool for configuration and integration, and, said HighTec, an ISO 26262 ASIL D qualified LLVM-based C/C++ compiler optimised for the TriCore architecture inside TC4x ICs.
There is also a IDE (integrated development environment) with a debugger, and project examples with getting-started documentation.
“The Aurix TC4x MCAL Evaluation Bundle extends our ease-of-use approach to the MCALs, and reduces the set-up time for software development engineers. We are happy to cooperate on this with our long-term partner HighTec.” - Thomas Schneid, Infineon Director of Software
It is a three-month free-of-charge access to MCAL software deal, which has to be requested by providing details of the intended project, plus other details, to HighTec. Beyond three months, to continue using the MCAL software, a software license agreement must be signed.
Founded in 1982, HighTec has offices in Germany, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Hungary and China.
