Infineon's standalone FlexRay communication controller CIC-310 has passed the FlexRay conformance test. Infineon boasts that it is among one of the first semiconductor suppliers to deliver high-volumes of FlexRay-enabled microcontroller solutions in conformance with the FlexRay protocol specification v2.1. The Conformance Test certificate was performed by TÜV Nord Group's Institute for Vehicle Technology and Mobility in Germany, an official conformance test organisation nominated by the FlexRay Consortium.
Infineon offers system suppliers a scalable solution to develop a FlexRay bus system in vehicles at an early design stage. The current Infineon FlexRay solutions consist of the CIC-310 and the TC1796 and TC1766 32-bit microcontrollers, part of the company's TriCore family, as well as the recently introduced XC2200 and XC2300 families which provide 32-bit performance. Furthermore, the CIC-310 can be used with most automotive microcontrollers or microprocessor architectures in the market, as the product offers a scalable and fast interface concept based on the Infineon Micro Link Interface (MLI) and on standard serial and parallel interfaces. Furthermore, for a faster implementation of FlexRay, AUTOSAR software drivers, which have been proven by the AUTOSAR Validator project, are available for the CIC-310.
"The volume production availability of our FlexRay communication controller, combined with the official certification, according to the latest FlexRay standard, will help enable our customers to develop state-of-the-art FlexRay solutions for automotive applications. Developing embedded FlexRay microcontrollers will underline Infineon's strength to offer full system solutions to its customers," said Carsten Loschinsky, director for application line Body, Chassis and Safety Microcontrollers at Infineon Technologies.
