RapidPro: Integrating<br />

DENSO Lambda Probes<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong>’s RapidPro hardware will<br />

soon make it possible to integrate<br />

DENSO lambda probes (PLUS2.1,<br />

PLUS3.x) into a function prototyping<br />

set­up (the Bosch LSU 4.2 and 4.9<br />

probes are already supported).<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong> offers an extensive selection<br />

of signal conditioning and power<br />

stage modules, for example, for<br />

integrating crankshaft, camshaft, and<br />

knock sensors and for controlling<br />

high­current injectors. The DENSO<br />

SystemDesk Supports<br />

AUTOSAR 2.1<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong> is continuing to extend the<br />

AUTOSAR support given by the<br />

SystemDesk architecture software.<br />

Version 1.1 of SystemDesk (planned<br />

for July 2008) will support AUTOSAR<br />

broadband probes supported by the<br />

new RapidPro SC­UHEGO 2/1 module<br />

can capture air­fuel mixes in the<br />

range AFR 10 … ∞ bzw. 12 … 25.<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong> provides an example model<br />

for integrating the lambda probes<br />

into the MATLAB ® /Simulink ® modeling<br />

environment.<br />

Release date for SC­UHEGO 2/1:<br />

2.1. This version of the AUTOSAR<br />

standard includes more precise<br />

specifications for developing a standardized<br />

electrics/electronics architecture,<br />

so users now have improved<br />

compatibility and greater stability in<br />

interactions and data exchange<br />

between tools for electronic control<br />

unit development.<br />

A Winning<br />

Team<br />

Once again, <strong>dSPACE</strong> took part in<br />

the Easter Run in Paderborn,<br />

home of our headquarters in Germany.<br />

This is the oldest road race<br />

in Germany and attracts top­level<br />

international competitors. This<br />

year, 8,000 runners gathered at<br />

the starting line, undaunted by<br />

adverse weather conditions. The<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong> team took the first­place<br />

trophy in the 5­kilometer Company<br />

Cup, a competition held for<br />

the first time this year. A total of<br />

37 <strong>dSPACE</strong> runners took part in<br />

the run. To get ready, they all<br />

trained together once a week<br />

after work, inspiring even inexperienced<br />

runners to join in. In the<br />

official handbike races, the<br />

athletes were delighted that<br />

<strong>dSPACE</strong> sponsored their events,<br />

like last year. With spirits high,<br />

the handbikers received their<br />

prizes in the <strong>dSPACE</strong> hospitality<br />

tent.
