T2M Automotive SBWP Master IP

SBWP Master IP

Description and Features

SBWP Master is full-featured, easy-to-use, synthesizable design, compatible with standard protocol of Safe-by-Wire Plus Specification. Through its SBWP compatibility, it provides a simple interface to a wide range of low-cost devices. SBWP Master IIP is proven in FPGA environment. The host interface of the SBWP Master can be simple interface or can be AMBA APB, AMBA AHB, AMBA AHB-Lite, AMBA AXI, AMBA AXI-Lite, VCI, OCP, Avalon, PLB, Tilelink, Wishbone or Custom protocol. SBWP Master IIP is supported natively in Verilog and VHDL

 

 

Features
  • Compliant with version 2.0 Safe-by-Wire Plus Specifications

  • Full SBWP Master functionality

  • Supports occupant restraints bus for deployable devices and for sensors

o Deployment bus for squibs and optionally for static occupancy sensors

o sensor bus for smart or simple impact sensors, dynamic occupancy sensors and optionally for static occupancy sensors

o combined sensor / deployment bus

  • Supports Bi-directional two-wire bus with integrated power distribution

o Master-Slave operation

o Babbling-idiot protection for deploy messages from master

o Provides optional interrupt possibilities for smart impact sensors

o Optional multi-master operation

  • Supports variable bus speed with self-clocking slaves

o 20 kbps, 40 kbps, 80 kbps or 160 kbps +/- 13%

o Data throughput example: at 160 kbps, (=160 kHz):

*Transfer time of a deploy message controlling up to 12 deployable devices < 200 μs

* Transfer time for retrieving 8-bit data from 3 impact sensors < 250 μs

  • Supports, but does not require, speed change for high-speed deployment messages, initiated by the master
