Chapter 4 Application Notes

Power

VCU Power

• Always connect all available power supply pins to allow maximum current capability,
because each power pin only allows limited current through. To avoid current overload on
certain pins, and to avoid the potential damage, all power pins should be connected even
they seem to be redundant.
• The total current through VCU is as maximum 15A.
• Analog input channel AI28 is internally connected to BATT for VCU power supply voltage
measurement. Its input voltage range is 0-36V with 12 bits resolution.
• ‘Read ADC Volt’ block in EcoCoder could be used to read voltage of BATT, please refer to ‘0-
36 V Analog Voltage Input’ part of section 4.2.2 for block setting details.

DRVP

• DRVP pins are the power supply for HSOs, LSOs with PWM function.
• Connect the V+ to the DRVP input (Pin 119 and 120) and the V- to PGND (Pin 96, 97, 88, 89).
• For over-current protection, fuses with proper rating are recommended for DRVP power
supply.

Sensor Power Supply

• The EH2275A provides 9 channels of 5V sensor power supply.


• 5V sensor ground is common grounded internally with VCU power ground.
• Sensor ground should connect to VCU signal ground instead of vehicle chassis
ground.

EH2275A Datasheet

VPWR Control Logic

• With BATT connected, VCU Power (VPWR) could be activated by KEYON, WAKEUP, FlexRay
Wake, CAN Wake and Power Delay signal.
• KEYON, WAKEUP are hardwire wake-up inputs with actual pins on the VCU connector. They
are active-high. KEYON is a typical key switch input. WAKEUP could be used for some
application that needs to wake up VCU. For example, to wake up the vehicle when charger
is plugged in.
• CAN Wake and FlexRay Wake are two wake-up signals controlled by the communication
bus drivers. The drivers constantly monitor CAN or FlexRay bus and could activate VPWR
when there is certain traffic detected on the bus.
• Power Delay signal is controlled by the low level software and it is used for VCU power-
down delay. This delay function provides the power to the VCU for an extended time
window after the user turning off the key-switch. During this extended time, or “after-run”,
VCU could do some “house-keeping” work, such as storing the critical data into non-volatile
memory (NVM).
• The user application software shall, before initiating the VCU shutdown process, make sure
all the wake-up signals mentioned above are not keeping the VCU awake:
• WAKEUP and KEYON inputs need to be low-asserted.
• Make sure there is no data traffic on CANA/FlexRay bus.
• Lastly trigger the EcoCoder power-down block.
• Notice: It is recommended to connect KEYON (Pin 24) to the actual vehicle key switch and
use the “Power Management Example” block in EcoCoder to manage the VCU and vehicle
shutdown process. Proved power management strategies are integrated in that block.

Communication Module

VCU CAN Module Introduction

• This VCU provides 4 CAN channels– CAN A, CAN B, CAN C, CAN D, all of the four CAN
channels are CAN 2.0B high speed type.
• CAN A has a built-in internal 120Ω terminal resistors, while there is no terminal resistor on
CAN B, C, D.
• CAN A supports VCU wake-up function, the VCU will be woken up by messages on the bus.
For example, after the KEYON goes to low, which initiates the VCU to sleep, the VCU will be
woken up as soon as there are messages on CAN A. This function could be used for
situation where VCU need to be turned on for certain applications, such as vehicle
charging.

Safety Monitoring Module

VCU 2275A comes with some advanced safety monitoring design, including independent dual
core hardware structure and three-level monitoring software architecture, to meet the system
safety level, up to ASIL-D.

The TC275 is Infineon 32-bit multi-core MCU and has three independent CPUs on chip (therefore
called “TriCore”). Of 3 CPUs, two have a monitoring core each, called Checker core. It meets the
automotive ISO26262 functional safety requirements, up to ASIL-D level. Overall, there are five
cores, three of them are user-programmable, two of them are monitoring cores and non-
programmable. EH2275A VCU uses the two independent CPUs with monitoring core. Each of two
independent CPUs has its own monitoring Checker. There is a 3rd CPU is reserved, not used. In
other words, EH2275 VCU uses 4 cores out of 5 on the TC275 chip. Each main core and monitoring
core run in lockstep mode, so they run / execute the same instruction all the time. After executing
each instruction, the results of the two cores will be compared. If the result is different, the
exception interrupt will be incurred and reported.

Independent dual core structure uses CPU0 and CPU1 for software development, each CPU has
three-level safety monitoring software running.

Three-Level Safety Monitoring Architecture

Three-level safety monitoring architecture


Level 1: Vehicle control functions, including all vehicle control strategies and fault diagnosis.
Level 2: Monitoring level 1 by a redundancy design, level 2 is independent to the Level 1. If there
is discrepancy between level 2 and the level 1, level 2 will force the critical safety reaction, such
as setting the torque command to ‘Neutral’.
Level 3: Low level monitoring of the software and hardware. CPU0 and CPU1 will constantly cross-
check each other, if the check fails, it will shut of the actuator/outputs, and avoid hazard situations.

Controller Chip-Level Diagnosis


a) Support Flash and Ram diagnostics of the master chip.
b) Support kernel self-test diagnostics of the master chip.

Software Architecture

• There are two parts of software inside the microcontroller, application software (ASW) and
basic software (BSW). BSW is also called “low level software”, and it is preloaded into
microcontroller by VCU manufacturer. ASW is usually created by the customer in Simulink
environment and programmed to VCU via CAN bus tool EcoFlash.
• BSW consist of three sub layers:
• Service layer includes system service, memory service and communication
service. This layer encapsulates the functions into different services which
would be directly called by Simulink blocks in application software.
• ECU* abstraction layer encapsulates drivers of microprocessor and
peripherals. Software and ECU hardware can be separated.
• Microprocessor and peripheral driver layer include drivers of microprocessor
and peripherals. Typically, microprocessor includes driver of watchdog, timer,
SPI, LIN, CAN, ADC, PWM and Flash. Peripheral includes drivers of HSO, LSO,
power management chip and CAN transceiver.
• Notice: ECU stands for electronic control unit. VCU is one kind of ECU.
