Currently, the TriCore™ and AURIX™ microcontroller families from Infineon are supported.

The timing bundle for PLS’ UDE Universal Debug Engine is based on the Vector ECU basic software MICROSAR Classic and the TA Tool Suite and is available from Vector. The UDE takes over the task of convenient and precise tracing directly on the ECU hardware. For the user-friendly trace recording, the basic software interface “AUTOSAR Run Time Interface” (ARTI) is used as a standardized exchange format and configured using the DaVinci Configurator Classic tool.

PLS‘ UDE, a powerful development tool for debugging, tracing and testing embedded software for microcontrollers and embedded processors, is characterized among other things by its intuitive user interface. In combination with the debugger devices UAD2pro, UAD2next or UAD3+ from PLS‘ Universal Access Device family, the versatile tool enables the direct recording of the runtime behavior of ECU applications using on-chip trace. The UDE supports the ARTI standard for AUTOSAR awareness as well as for generating trace data for further analysis by timing tools.

TheTA Tool Suite from Vector enables in-depth analysis of the timing behavior of an of an ECU. It also simplifies the integration of software, taking timing aspects into account. This increases the efficiency and responsiveness of embedded real-time systems. The TA.Inspection option of the TA Tool Suite is used to import trace measurements from UDE via the MDF-ARTI format. This makes it easy to analyze response times, utilization and other metrics. The timing bundle also contains the steps required to automate the entire process.
