requirements rated up to ASIL C.
• Operating temperature range -40°C to +125°C
General Description
The E521.41 was developed to manage the connection
and communication between a microcontroller unit and
up to 24 sensor satellites.
Data transmission from the sensor to ECU is done by
current modulation on the power supply lines with data
rate of 125 Kbit/s or 189 Kbit/s (Manchester coded).
Data transmission from ECU to sensor is done by
voltage modulation on the power supply. It supports bid-
irectional communication. Two methods are supported:
• tooth gap method
• pulse width method
The device is a PSI5 V1.3 and V2.1 compliant trans-
ceiver which provides four independently operating
channels. The channels are able to communicate in low
power-,
standard-, synchronous- and asynchronous operating
mode. The communication to µC is done via the SPI or
UART interface.
Applications
• Safety (airbag) control systems
• Powertrain control systems
• Vehicle dynamics control system
