E2B Controlled Steer by Wire System

2025年02月04日

Steer-By-Wire (SBW) systems represent a transformative leap in the automotive industry, facilitating a more intuitive and responsive driving experience. The elimination of the mechanical steering column unlocks numerous benefits, including a variable steering ratio, enhanced autonomous driving capabilities, flexible steering wheel positioning, and the potential for rear wheel steering.

Our demonstration showcases the pivotal role of the steering rack actuator in SBW systems. This actuator is integral to aligning the wheels by interpreting digitally transmitted signals from the steering input. We employ 10BASE-T1S E2B technology, which provides a sensor and actuator interface devoid of microcontrollers, alongside the ADMT4000 magnetic turn counter sensor, to achieve precise and reliable steering control. The ADMT4000 is capable of tracking the number of rotations of a magnetic system, even in power-down mode, making it crucial for a reliable SBW system.

Key features of 10BASE-T1S E2B technology include:

  • Robust, multidrop/switched Ethernet connectivity (10BASE-T1S IEEE802.3)
  • ADI’s E2B Low Complexity Ethernet (AutoLCE) technology, which removes microcontrollers at the edge nodes
  • Multiple flexible sensor/actuator interfaces
  • IEEE802.1AS TSN implementation enabling hardware time stamping of sensor data

Key features of ADMT4000 include:

  • Recording readings even when the power is down
  • Turn count of 46, with an absolute angle accuracy of +/- 0.25°
  • Measurement update rate of 100 kSPS
  • Support for SPI/SENT interfaces
