SCALEXIO

Application Areas

The dSPACE SCALEXIO product line comprises highly flexible and modular systems in several form factors for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) and rapid control prototyping (RCP) applications for various industries such as automotive, automation, aerospace, medical, transportation, or research. Its powerful real-time technology and comprehensive bus support are ideally suited for the most demanding applications of today and tomorrow, which include highly automated and autonomous driving, electromobility, and increasing network communication driven by modern E/E architectures.

Two product types are available for the SCALEXIO processing hardware – the computing core: the SCALEXIO Processing Unit and the DS6001 Processor Board. Both hardware components are regularly updated to enable real-world testing.

SCALEXIO Processing Unit

• Real-time platform for applications with high performance requirements
• Two product types:
  
  • High core performance for applications that require strong computation performance per core
  • High parallel performance for applications that require the parallel computation of very large simulation models

DS6001 Processor Board

• Real-time platform for a very compact system size
• For applications that require fast closed-loop rates or high I/O bandwidth

• Standard I/O hardware that covers development and testing, an extensive FPGA-based portfolio for highly dynamic applications
• HighFlex boards, e.g., for ECU HIL tests including signal conditioning and fault simulation
• MultiCompact Units with a high number of I/O channels as well as integrated signal conditioning and onboard Failure Insertion Unit

• Task-synchronous signal preprocessing on I/O boards to take some of the load off the real-time processor to ensure highest real-time performance of the SCALEXIO systems
• Connection to the processing hardware via an IOCNET interface
• Fully software-configurable
• Easy installation and configuration processes, so very little training effort is necessary
