Abstract
Automobile electronics has been deemed as the 4th “C” with a potentially gigantic market right after Computer, Communication and Consumer electronics. The next-generation automobile electronics are aiming at safety, comfort, convenience, ubiquity, and environment-friendly. FlexRay standard has been promoted for in-car networking to achieve the mentioned goals. It will not replace the existing network, but it can combine and integrate with existing systems, including CAN, LIN, MOST, etc. FlexRay requires 10 Mbps data rate in either one of the two channel of an ECU. The ultimate goal is that the automobile is X-by-wire. The Tx/Rx design and protocol basics of FlexRay standard will be briefed in this talk.
