Getting a Head Start on Software Development with Virtual ECUs

Mercedes-Benz uses Synopsys solutions like Silver for the development and optimization of ECUs for diesel and gasoline engines, as well as for other ECUs along the powertrain. Virtual ECUs are built either from the C sources or from the HEX file of the target ECU processor. This way, Meredes-Benz engineers can move several development steps from road, engine test rig, and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) to PCs.
