Custom Embedded software for each ECU – Electronic practice

ECU developers, the embedded software faces enormous challenges – they shall be tailored precisely to the requirements and hardware components.

vehicle manufacturers and their suppliers need to take new approaches in the development of embedded software based on quality skills for various reasons. To these challenges RTA Engineering Services responds with the development of high quality, custom embedded software. It is based on the extensive experience of ETAS in providing software series.

For 20 years, ETAS offers innovative solutions for developing embedded software for the automotive industry and other fields of embedded industry.

Real-time operating systems and AUTOSAR runtime environments are in the global road in more than one billion control units (ECUs) in use. ETAS is active in the embedded software industry for many years. Based on this experience, advanced ETAS portfolio and now offers services to design specific embedded software.

Competent project support

“Our customers are facing several challenges: the pressure to develop software based innovations, growing, drop-market, security aspects, cost optimization and conformity with standards become increasingly important , Consequently, the distribution of roles in the value chain for ECU software “changes, says Friedhelm Pickhard, Chairman of the ETAS management.

“The challenges arising from these changes, RTA Engineering Services accesses.” Services include design, implementation, integration and testing of embedded software. This can be developed for a specific controller or for different hardware platforms. The advantage is obvious: customers regardless of their chosen hardware solution rely on high-quality software from ETAS.
