An efficient LIN MCU design for In-Vehicle Networks

Abstract

Abstract-This paper describes a design of LIN MCU using efficient memory accessing architecture which provides concurrent data and address fetch for faster communication. By using slew rate control it can reduce EMI emission while satisfying required communication specifications. To verify the efficiency of the LIN MCU, we developed a SoC and tested for several data packets. Measurements show that this LIN MCU improves network efficiency up to 17.19 % and response time up to 31.26 % for nominal cases. EMI radiation also can be reduced up to 10 dB.
