High-speed Flashing with Ed & Ted – Get it Done!

Software-defined vehicles (SDV) and new E/E architectures place high demands on diagnostics, vehicle access and data management. The need for software updates is increasing, as is the amount of data that needs to be transferred. In the near future, around 50 GB of data per vehicle type and model series will have to be stored accordingly. Conventional methods are often too slow and unreliable here. The Smart Vehicle Interface Softing SVI is a high-performance platform for modern ECU programming with continuous data supply. The solution combines the advantages of the high-speed wireless connection of a smart device with the classic diagnostic functions of a high-end vehicle communication interface (VCI) and thus enables fast, reliable and flexible flash programming of large amounts of data.

New High-Speed Interface "Softing SVI" for Vehicle Communication in the Gigabit Range

We are pleased to present the new Smart Vehicle Interface ‘Softing SVI’ – a high-performance solution for modern ECU programming with continuous data supply. The Softing SVI combines the advantages of the high-speed wireless connection of a Smart Device with the classic diagnostic functions of a high-end Vehicle Communication Interface (VCI) and an SSD in a compact housing. It thus enables fast, reliable and flexible flash programming of substantial amounts of data and is therefore the solution for the high requirements of software-defined vehicles (SDV).

Meet us at the 17th Conference on Diagnostics

The 17th Conference on Diagnostics in Mechatronic Vehicle Systems will take place in Dresden on 14 and 15 May 2024. This year's topics will once again revolve around current challenges and new technologies in the field of testing, inspection and diagnosis of E/E systems in the vehicle in connection with the networked infrastructure, new assistance functions and the challenges of fulfilling legal requirements and standards. On Wednesday 15 May, Kay Lübkert (Project Manager at Softing Automotive) and Jürgen Heilmeier (Manager Innovation & Test, Softing Automotive) will provide you with exclusive insights into the requirements for vehicle access in the software-based vehicles.

Mastering Flexibility in Flash Programming

Mastering Flexibility in Flash Programming

The flash programming of electronic control units (ECUs) in vehicles has now become widely accepted: There are anywhere between 3 and 120 ECUs depending on the market segment. These can usually be supplied with new software directly or via a gateway using a tester. This capability is used in a number of ways, although a vehicle interface currently has to be plugged in to mediate between the programming application and the ECUs. In the future, over-the-air updates will open up further possibilities.

Cybersecurity: Protecting a cyber-physical remote diganostic communication system against cyberattacks

Article on Cybersecurity

The wireless and remote connection between a diagnostic tester and a fleet of vehicles can be considered a technical masterpiece, but only if new challenges such as closing security gaps are mastered. The article analyzes the components of the cyber-physical system (CPS) for remote diagnostic communication and provides measures to improve the resilience against cyberattacks.

SAVE THE DATE – ELIV Congress 2019

Visit Softing at the ELIV Congress 2019!

Meet us at the international congress for automotive electronics ELIV on October 16-17, 2019 in Bonn, Germany. In the fast-paced automotive market, it is of greater importance than ever before for OEMs and suppliers to have transparency when it comes to quality and reliability in all their often globally distributed process sequences.
