FlexRay - The Hardware View

FlexRay is an upcoming networking standard being established to raise the data rate, reliability, and safety of the automotive applications of today and tomorrow. Synthesizable FlexRay intellectual property (IP) is now available for those who want to integrate it into a new chip. This paper discusses what the FlexRay IP is and how to implement it; highlighting issues, considerations, and solutions for the system designer.

e Verification Environment for FlexRay Advanced Automotive Networks

FlexRay is the vehicle networking standard being backed by all major automotive manufacturers because it is fast and flexible while being reliable and deterministic. NXP (formerly Philips) Semiconductor is a founding member of the FlexRay Consortium and has invested heavily in a comprehensive e verification environment for FlexRay, which IPextreme is taking to market.

Open Source FlexRay Communication: Time Triggered OS and FlexRay Communication Middleware

We developed a set of software programs for FlexRay communication, which is considered the next de facto standard for automotive communication, and we will release our programs as open source software in near future. For the programs mentioned above, we have decided to develop specifications for a time triggered real time operating system that is suitable for FlexRay communication middleware. This operating system has a special feature which manages both time triggered control and event triggered control

Five steps to FlexRay

FlexRay comes onto the road with single-channel high-speed power-train, driver-assistance, and comfort automotive electronics applications. In developing FlexRay applications, there are five basic steps that design engineers can apply leading to a robust network topology.
