Updated ADAS testing equipment and a new case study.

In cooperation with an Tier 1 supplier and one of our Automotive OEM’s we have updated the ADAS-Simulation solution from WireFlow to meet next generation technology within ADAS-development.

We are also happy to show our case study on how we could provide this specific needs using National Instrument’s flexible tools and platform together with our expertise.

CASE | Sensor Simulation for ADAS Testing

If you want to know more about how we can build a costeffective Smart Sensor Simulation-solution based on NI’s proven platform, contact us for a meeting.

The PT 100 is one of the most popular industrial sensors that can be found in cars, airplanes, airconditioning systems, washing machines, laboratories etc.

It changes resistance with the temperature and usually has a sensitivity of 0.385 Ohms/deg C and a resistance of 100Ohms at 0 deg C.

During software and hardware development, it is important to simulate the behaviour of real sensor inputs accurately. This simplifies software testing and decrease the number of board-sprints.

Resistive sensors are harder to simulate than voltage or current-based sensors since it is easier to control a voltage than to alter the resistance of a passive load. Most software controlled resistors also have a narrow operating range.

The WF 3144 from WireFlow is a versatile 4 channel programmable resistor which has a wide range and good resolution. It can be used for PT100 simulation with a Compact-RIO controller.

If you want to learn more about how to simulate resistance sensors with the WF 3144, read our application note “PT100 Resistance Thermometer Simulator” and download our example code.
