AUTOSAR or “Automotive Open System Architecture” is an open & standard automotive software architecture developed by automobile manufacturers, suppliers, and tool developers. The main focus is introducing a standardized layer between application software and electronic control unit (ECU) hardware. Thus, the software is mainly independent of any chosen microcontroller and car maker, making it reusable for several individual ECU systems.
Hexad has more than a decade of experience developing and implementing AUTOSAR software and essential tools for vehicle infrastructures. Hexad is your best AUTOSAR technology partner. Our expertise covers the Classic AUTOSAR implementation and the new Adaptive AUTOSAR architecture standard for high-performance ECUs. While the vehicle requires ongoing architectural improvement, Hexad continues to work with the best industry partners to develop the standards. In addition to the mentioned statement, AUTOSAR 4. x was set, supporting various automotive communications networks such as CAN, CAN FD, LIN, FlexRay, and Ethernet.
Whether you are implementing deeply embedded functionalities on the Classic Platform or high-performance functionalities on the Adaptive Platform, we have the expertise to help you.
Traditionally, software development for automotive applications is in isolation by OEMs or their suppliers. Further, updating hardware or software led to a lot of duplicated effort amongst players in the automotive sector, prolonged development cycles, and a lack of commercial flexibility.
The AUTOSAR Classic Platform addresses those deficiencies by providing a clearly defined layer of abstraction between the hardware providing a common software foundation irrespective of the chosen microcontroller.
Following is the layered architecture of the AUTOSAR Adaptive Platform (sometimes known as the Adaptive AUTOSAR Platform).
AUTOSAR-compliant Basic software modules development
System Stack, Communication Stack, Memory Stack, I/O Hardware, Abstraction, Complex Device Driver
AUTOSAR Stack Software integration from the leading tool suppliers
Microcontroller platforms and integration of OEM-specific AUTOSAR modules
Upgrading of platform software to new AUTOSAR version of specifications
Polyspace, QA-C/MISRA
Vehicle bus simulation using leading tools and suppliers
AUTOSAR module functional & integration testing
