Before emission laws were passed, it
was possible to build a car engine without using any microprocessor.
However with the introduction of strict emission laws, pollution control
schemes were considered necessary in order to regulate the air and fuel
mixture in automobiles so that the catalytic converter could eliminate
the pollution generated from the exhaust. Automotive electronic control
unit (ECU) is the most powerful microprocessor used in a car. Automotive
electronic control unit (ECU) is an embedded system that controls and
manages more than one electrical system in a motor vehicle. The
electronic control unit (ECU) makes use of a closed-loop control which
is a control scheme used to monitor output of a system to control the
inputs into a system thus managing the fuel economy and emissions of the
engine. It also gathers data from several sensors to assemble all
information related to the vehicle, right from the temperature of the
coolant to the amount of oxygen in the exhaust. Using this data, the
automotive electronic control unit (ECU) performs calculations which
include looking up values, calculating the results of equations in order
to decide the best spark timing and thus determining the time for which
the fuel injector is open. The automotive electronic control unit (ECU)
does this to ensure best mileage and the lowest emissions.
Some of the types of ECU are
powertrain control module (PCM), electronic engine control module (ECM),
transmission control module (TCM), central control module (CCM), brake
control module (BCM), central timing module (CTM), body control module
(BCM), general electronic module (GEM), suspension control module (SCM),
control unit and control module. Automotive electronic control unit
(ECU) market can be classified based on types of product which include
powertrain electronics, entertainment systems, chassis electronics,
security and safety systems, communication systems, navigation systems,
and other automobile electronics. Automotive electronic control units
(ECUs) are extensively used in automobiles for providing an enhanced
engine control. Presently the automobile industry has become dependent
on electronic control units (ECUs) as these machines facilitate high
safety levels. Contemporary cars have developed advanced machinery by
virtue of which its operations are controlled using the electronic
control units (ECUs). High-end segment cars consists about 150
electronic control units (ECUs) for virtual controlling of the car.
These cars use electronic control units (ECUs) for managing navigation,
increasing efficiency and mounting system solutions to prevent
accidents. The vehicle telematics system is a form of electronic control
unit (ECU), includes local hotspot information, stability control or an
electronic traction for steering sensors and shock sensor controls for
using airbags in an event of collision with any object.
The automotive electronic control unit
(ECU) market is fuelled by factors such as need to comply with emission
regulations, strong customer demand for improved safety and security
features and increasing efforts of OEMs towards product differentiation.
Additionally, regulatory mandates pertaining to stringent fuel economy
standards is one of the key driving factors for the increasing demand of
automotive electronic control unit (ECU). The availability of
intra-city roads and better highways has facilitated fast access to
destinations and thus customers are more inclined towards owning fast
and safe cars. Thus manufacturers are offered the opportunity to
distinguish their products and compete with each other in order to offer
improved features and technology. The demand for utility vehicles and
passenger cars market is expected to grow exponentially in the near
future. Newer models are expected to be launched in these segments with
higher technology content, thus driving the demand for automotive
electronic control units (ECUs). Introduction of Bharat Stage Emission
Norms IV (BS IV) in passenger cars and utility vehicles and Bharat Stage
Emission Norms III (BS III) in commercial vehicles is expected to
significantly drive the demand for electronic control unit (ECU) after
2014. However the OEMs inclination towards few suppliers poses as a
major hindrance to market expansion. Current trends show that automakers
favor limited number of suppliers and opt for suppliers offering
unparalleled services and products.
