An important step toward creating software for the software-defined vehicle (SDV) that is both scalable and affordable was announced by Elektrobit. EB Tresos AutoCore Light, which is intended for peripheral ECUs like smart sensors and actuators, lowers development complexity and costs while facilitating integration into contemporary zonal systems and upgrades of pre-existing domain architectures.
Adapting new technologies is only one aspect of the shift to software-designed mobility; automakers must also align their current and future market demands. This entails creating scalable products with the ability to meet both low- and high-scale needs and the adaptability to scale up or down in response to client requests.
A lightweight, resource-optimized basic software package for intelligent, cost-efficient ECUs that are crucial to the transition to the SDV has been released by Elektrobit.
Elektrobit delivers a scalable, lean software platform for new SDV requirements by leveraging its extensive domain expertise in automotive embedded software, demonstrated success with EB Tresos AutoCore, and dedication to modular, standards-compliant solutions.
EB tresos AutoCore Light meets the demands of peripheral ECUs—cost- and resource-optimized micro-controllers designed for Input/Output (I/O) devices, end nodes and smart sensors and actuators. In short:
- Modular architecture enables code reuse, simplifies updates, and reduces development time.
- OEMs working to build SDVs can leverage EB tresos AutoCore Light for the efficient integration of smart sensors and actuators into their E/E architectures. The software foundation for zonal ECUs is provided by EB tresos AutoCore and EB zoneo.
- Consolidating functions into zonal ECUs and designing peripheral ECUs without OEM specific requirements allows for a reduction in E/E architecture hardware and R&D costs of up to 30% compared to typical AUTOSAR Basic software based on Elektrobit’s internal measurements.
- Peripheral ECUs can be utilized with smaller MCUs, saving costs on hardware and R&D.
EB Tresos AutoCore Light employs widely recognized signal-based communication without adding new ideas or complications. Even on limited hardware, it provides safe and secure implementation because it is CSMS certified and ASIL-B ready.
EB Tresos expansion packages allow customers to increase capabilities. We provide customized add-ons, including J1939 and DLT, to satisfy a range of application requirements, depending on the available memory (ROM/RAM).
Leadership Comments
Jagan Rajagopalan, Head of Strategy & Portfolio, Elektrobit Automotive GmbH emphasized, “The Software-Defined Vehicle is a complex ecosystem, and EB tresos AutoCore Light offers a smart, efficient entry point for customers aiming to build scalable, future-ready software. Tailored for resource-constrained peripheral ECUs, it breaks away from traditional monolithic architectures with a lightweight, modular design. By building on proven EB tresos AutoCore components, it empowers customers to accelerate development, reduce integration complexity, and confidently scale their SDV strategies.”
The first version of EB tresos AutoCore Light is available on select Cortex M0+, M4F and similar microcontroller platforms, with further updates expected later in the year.
