Automotive ECU’s Architecture and Logic (French)

This kit allows students to investigate Electronics Control Unit circuits using a pre-programmed micro ECU. Students start by building a fully functioning ECU with inputs, a relay and a transistor output and carry out the bulk of learning with it. Students construct a circuit around the ECU, select one of 14 programs on the ECU and work through the workbook provided. The workbook includes a number of fault finding exercises so that students can understand how faults in ECU circuits can be diagnosed and interpreted. Suitable for Level 3 students and technicians. A full workbook of exercises is provided.

Learning objectives:

• ECU operation and structure
• Logic functions
• Pulse width Modulation
• Inputs and switches
• Sensors – light, temperature, Hall effect
• Transistor and relay outputs
• Simple actuators – motors and solenoids
• Fibre optics
• Fault finding in ECU circuits
