4.2 Microcontroller Abstraction Layer

For the quickest time to market, TI offers microcontroller abstraction layer (MCAL) which provides microcontroller drivers, memory drivers, communication and IO drivers with example applications. Figure 4-1 shows the AUTOSAR (AUTOmotive Open System Architecture) architecture with TI provided MCAL layer. Many TI-preferred partners including Vector integrates TI-MCAL with AUTOSAR® for Tier-1 SW releases.
