AUTOSAR Standard

Embedded Coder® software supports AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture (AUTOSAR), an open and standardized automotive software architecture. Automobile manufacturers, suppliers, and tool developers jointly develop AUTOSAR components.

The AUTOSAR standard addresses:

  • Architecture – Three layers, Application, Runtime Environment (RTE), and Basic Software, enable decoupling of AUTOSAR software components from the execution platform. Standard interfaces between AUTOSAR software components and the run-time environment allow reuse or relocation of components within the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) topology of a vehicle.

  • Methodology – Specification of code formats and description file templates, for example.

  • Application Interfaces – Specification of interfaces for typical automotive applications.
