Virtual ECU Vendor and Protocol Support

Virtual ECUs allow you to test devices quickly, with a more realistic rest bus simulation, and with less effort for creating the bus simulation.

Vendor Support

The VeriStand Virtual ECU Toolkit supports virtual ECUs you created with Synopsys® Silver in FMU format. Both FMI 2.0 and FMI 3.0 co-simulation models are supported. Contact Synopsys for more information about creating a virtual ECU.

Communication Protocol Support

The VeriStand Virtual ECU Toolkit supports the following communication protocols for virtual ECUs.
  • CAN
  • LIN
  • Ethernet

Limitations

  • VeriStand supports only virtual ECUs built with Synopsys® Silver virtual bus in Step Mode.
  • VeriStand does not support running virtual ECUs and network clusters at different rates.
  • VeriStand does not support virtual ECUs built with a non-default SVB Configuration file (SilverCanSvbConfigFile).
