Conformance classes for AUTOSAR
The conformance classes define a minimum set of BSW modules that an ECU must support to be considered compliant with a specific conformance class. By adhering to a conformance class, ECU manufacturers can ensure their products are compatible with other AUTOSAR-compliant systems and components. Let’s list out the types of conformance classes:
- Conformance Class 1 (CC1): This class represents the most basic level of AUTOSAR support, primarily focusing on essential features, such as communication and basic diagnostics. ECUs conforming to CC1 typically have limited resources and are used in simple applications.
- Conformance Class 2 (CC2): ECUs conforming to CC2 provide more advanced features than CC1, such as support for complex device drivers, memory management, and advanced diagnostics. CC2 is suitable for ECUs with more resources and complex use cases.
- Conformance Class 3 (CC3): This class is designed for high-performance ECUs with...
