AUTOSAR - La nueva arquitectura de software en el sector Automotriz

Freescale Semiconductor lo invita a participar al seminario en línea:

AUTOSAR - La nueva arquitectura de software en el sector Automotriz

AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) es una arquitectura de software abierta y estandarizada desarrollada conjuntamente por fabricantes de automóviles, proveedores y desarrolladores de herramientas de software. En este Webinar se entenderá que el principal objetivo de esta organización es estandarizar las arquitecturas de componentes electrónicos en el sector automotriz, de tal forma que esto permita la estandarización de funciones de sistema básicas y la portabilidad a diferentes variantes de vehículos y plataformas. También se platicará sobre el rol de Freescale en esta organización y sus soluciones. ¡No te lo pierdas!

STEVAL-MKI030V1 Vibration analysis demonstration board based on the STM8S207R6 MCU and LIS331DLH MEMS





Features and Description

Detection of vibration of the board and display of this information using the LEDs

Detection of circular motion of the board

Detection of tilt of the board

Six different modes of operation of the system

Music/rhythm patterns as per the mode and motion of the board

Low power consumption along with standby of the system on regular intervals of time

Battery monitoring and display of the battery status using the LEDs

Powered up by 3 AAA batteries.

Free MCU I/Os for the future extensions

SWIM connector for the debugging capability

RoHS compliant

The system, called as vibration analysis board, is a demonstration board which detects the vibration of the board and measures the acceleration in all three axes(X, Y and Z) because of this motion. This information is displayed using the different color LEDs placed in three axes.
The system can detect the tilt of the board and this information is displayed using the Bi-color led placed at the center of the board.
The board can also be configured to detect the circular motion of the board and LED patterns are generated depending on the motion of the board.
The system is also provided with the demonstration mode, in which different LED patterns get displayed irrespective of the position/motion of the board making the system suitable for exhibitions and seminars.
There are three musical modes in which the music/rhythm is played as per the mode/motion of the board and there are three silent modes making total of six different modes of operation of the system. The system can be switched from one mode to other by pressing an onboard push button designated MODE.
The system is put on the standby whenever there is no motion of the board for more than 10 seconds, reducing the power consumption of the system. The system wakes up from standby whenever any vibration/motion is detected. The system also monitors the battery and user can check the battery status at any time. Whenever the low battery is detected the system alerts the user to change the battery and enters into halt mode to avoid any misbehavior of the system.
The board is having free MCU I/Os for the external interface. Also SWIM connector is provided on the board providing the in circuit debugging capability.
The system can be powered up using 3 AAA batteries of 1.5 V each.
The board is of circular shape with total dimensions of 84 mm diameter and 26 mm height.
The board is RoHS compliant.
