One of the four-wheel brake control units per vehicle is located at the wheel and includes the brake motor, and, optionally, an electro-mechanical parking brake. Control is managed by a central control unit (ECU) that coordinates the braking force for each wheel brake control unit and supports ABS and ESP.
Design requirements
• High processing power for lowest latency and fastest braking reaction time.
• Precise analog signal chain for accurate braking force resulting in shortest braking distance.
• Functional safety aware application enables next-gen automomous driving.
