Ø  End-to-End Protection: Implements E2E communication protection mechanisms, ensuring data integrity and correctness during transmission through CRC verification, counters, and timestamps.

Ø  Memory Protection: Implements CRC verification and data redundancy backup for critical data through storage management modules including EA (EEPROM Abstraction), FEE (Flash EEPROM Emulation), and NVM (Non-Volatile Memory Manager), ensuring storage reliability.

Ø  OS SC4: Implements AUTOSAR OS with Scalability Class 4 (SC4) features, providing memory protection mechanisms, timing protection monitoring, and service protection for safety-critical applications. 

ZC.MuNiu provides a comprehensive basic software platform solution for the development of automotive electronic control units. This product refers to international standards such as AUTOSAR and OSEK, and has a configuration tool based on the AUTOSAR ARTOP architecture.  ZC.MuNiu supports communication, diagnostics, and network management specifications for major OEMs like SAIC, FAW, Geely, GAC, CCAG, and GWM.  

The THA6206 series microcontroller of Tsinghua Unigroup Tongxin is based on the Arm Cortex-R52+ core and is the first Arm Cortex-R52+ core automotive-grade MCU in China to obtain ASIL D product certification: The main frequency reaches 400MHz, adopts the Armv8 architecture instruction set, integrates the latest version of GTM 4.1, supports high-precision PWM output, reaches the highest level of EVITA-Full, has an inbuilt hardware RDC module, and simultaneously supports both soft decoding and hard decoding of resolutor signal processing methods, which can provide a good software and hardware foundation for the automotive electronic and electrical architecture. Meet the demands of industry customers in application scenarios such as the power domain, chassis domain, body domain and intelligent driving domain.

Shanghai ZC Technology, as a globally significant partner of Tsinghua Unigroup Tongxin, has provided the basic software platform for the THA6206 series of microcontrollers, mainly including: Multi-core operating system, communication protocol stack (CAN/LIN), diagnostic protocol stack (UDS/J1939), network management (OSEK/AUTOSAR), calibration costack (XCP/CCP), storage protocol stack, complex driver module, etc., along with ZC's Bootloader refresh program and upper computer tools It can be configured and redeveloped according to the requirements of different customer projects. While providing basic software products, ZC Technology also offers development services for the realization of basic software functions of controllers.

ZC.MuNiu Basic Software Platform can be applied to the development of automotive electronic control unit products using the TONGXIN MICRO THA6206 series chips. For example:

Ø Motor controller

Ø  Vehicle controller

Ø  Battery management system

Ø  Gearbox controller

Ø  Fuel cell controller

Ø  Engine controller

Ø  Steering system controller

Ø  Domain controller

Ø  ADAS controller

 The AUTOSAR organization was established in 2003, mainly by European car manufacturers, component suppliers, and other electronics, semiconductor, and software system companies. It is committed to developing an open, standardized software architecture for the automotive industry. The goal is to "cooperate on standards and compete on applications", so can improve the stability of the basic platform, reducing costs, and enhancing the quality and speed of controller product development. The 2.1 version of the specification was released at the end of 2006, and the 3.1 version was released in 2008. Functional safety, Ethernet, and other contents are also added. Currently, the widely used versions are 4.2.1 and 4.2.2, as well as version 4.3.1.

In the major trends of electrification, connectivity, and intelligence, the number of automotive electronic and electrical components is increasing. The electrical structure is becoming more complex, and the development cycle of the vehicle is continuously shortening. Basic software plays an increasingly important role.

ZC provides basic software products, as well as development services comply with ASPICE Level 3 processes and functional safety requirements of ASIL-D. ZC also provides customized complex driver software for SBC (Safety Control Board) chips and BCCIC (Battery Cell Control IC) chips. By integrating ZC's functional safety product SafetyFrame, can meet the functional safety requirements.

      ZC has the core technology of the AUTOSAR basic software and can provide on-site support with high quality, fast speed, and low cost.

To meet the diverse project requirements of customers and enhance the scalability of the basic software platform, the MuNiu basic software platform has implemented the configurability of each module and has also developed a configuration tool. Customers can complete the configuration of each module according to different requirements on the configuration tool, generate configuration code files, and integrate the generated configuration files into the project.

 ZC.MuNiu basic software platform configuration tool is based on the Eclipse platform and is built on the ARTOP architecture, which implements the parsing of the AUTOSAR model and ARXML. In addition to the modules defined by the AUTOSAR standard, it also supports OEM and Tie1 manufacturers to develop their own modules for secondary development. After the configuration is completed, the configuration code for each module can be generated.
