Solutions for diagnostic simulation of ECUs and vehicles ensure process-reliable regression testing of diagnostic testers (“test the tester”), simplify the commissioning of test sequences, and provide optimal training opportunities for employees. All required vehicle variants, including fault patterns, can be conveniently simulated. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/parallel-access-to-ecus-and-vehicles-with-ed-and-ted-get-it-done.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/parallel-access-to-ecus-and-vehicles-with-ed-and-ted-get-it-done.html#commentsTue, 12 Sep 2023 10:58:00 +0200https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/parallel-access-to-ecus-and-vehicles-with-ed-and-ted-get-it-done.htmlBoost efficiency with parallel access to ECUs and vehicles! Discover how simultaneous testing and updating of ECU software can significantly enhance engineering productivity, improve vehicle quality, increase flexibility in software management, and accelerate adaptation to evolving requirements. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/our-new-product-catalog-is-now-available.htmlMon, 11 Apr 2022 10:11:00 +0200Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/our-new-product-catalog-is-now-available.htmlIn our product catalog we provide you with an up-to-date overview of the Softing Automotive range.

Softing realizes special test adapters for HV control units, in other words for Battery Management Controllers (BMC) as well as for Cell Supervision Electronics (CSE). https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/passive-cell-simulation-for-ecu-tests-without-real-cells.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/passive-cell-simulation-for-ecu-tests-without-real-cells.html#commentsTue, 15 Feb 2022 08:39:00 +0100Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/passive-cell-simulation-for-ecu-tests-without-real-cells.htmlPassive cell simulations are used to avoid being permanently dependent on real batteries or very complex and expensive active cell simulations during the development of Cell Supervision Electronics (CSE). These simulate the complete cell stack in a balanced state of charge, the individual cell controllers detect suitably charged cells and thus a fully functional battery system. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/high-voltage-capacity-decades-substitute-for-the-dc-link-capacity-in-the-vehicle.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/high-voltage-capacity-decades-substitute-for-the-dc-link-capacity-in-the-vehicle.html#commentsTue, 01 Feb 2022 08:39:00 +0100Marion Menacherhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/high-voltage-capacity-decades-substitute-for-the-dc-link-capacity-in-the-vehicle.htmlDuring the development of electric and hybrid vehicles, high-voltage capacity decades (HV-C decades) are used to replace the DC link capacity in the vehicle. Thus, they simulate one of the most important energy storage devices of the power electronic vehicle system. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/individual-test-equipment-for-maximum-reliability-in-engineering-and-tests.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/individual-test-equipment-for-maximum-reliability-in-engineering-and-tests.html#commentsTue, 02 Feb 2021 08:54:00 +0100https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/individual-test-equipment-for-maximum-reliability-in-engineering-and-tests.htmlA large number of different cables, adapters and peripheral simulations are used in the engineering of vehicle electronics, the testing of electronic and electrical components and in component integration into the complete vehicle. The use of standard products is rarely possible here. Test equipment specially adapted to the control unit, vehicle series or test environment is nearly always required. https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/test-boards-working-as-if-you-were-working-on-a-verhicle-but-with-full-comfort.htmlhttps://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/test-boards-working-as-if-you-were-working-on-a-verhicle-but-with-full-comfort.html#commentsTue, 01 Dec 2020 09:33:00 +0100https://automotive.softing.com/service/automotive-blog/test-boards-working-as-if-you-were-working-on-a-verhicle-but-with-full-comfort.htmlA range of original components can be conveniently attached and connected to each other on test boards according to their target arrangement in the vehicle. This is the perfect way to subject, in particular, the cable harness and ECUs to complex networking and function tests in conjunction with real sensors, actuators and other subsystems. Test boards thus enable flexible tests for series validation – long before tests are possible on real vehicles.
