Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''ARM based Unidentified Fueling Object''' - developer info! http://www.vems.hu/files/misc/ufo.gif ''The primary application for this board has changed as a result of the ArmEfi growing out of the EC36 connector and the box. The ArmUfo will use the 120X40X2.5mm box and the EC36 connector instead, while the ArmEfi is postponed until we find suitable connector and box.'' This board is meant to be the right size for most cars in a standalone application and also scale well when used as a building block in a larger system. '''Specification:''' Case: Aluminium with 120x40x2.5mm profile. Connector: AMP Econoseal III 36 pin. Internal MAP: 4 bar sensor with a 5x3mm pneumatic connector on the front plate. CAN: 1 internal, and 1 included in the EC36 connector as part of the VEMSLink interface. WBo2: 1 channel Sensor Inputs: IAT, CLT, TPS. Trigger Inputs: 2 VR/Hall channels. '''Power outputs''' 10..13 DPAK outputs sound right * all of them are flyback capable ** 8 channels with controlled flyback (PNP darlington DPAK) ** flyback for max 4 can be throughole (or simple SMB diode) * max 8 DPAK outputs can be high-freq PWM-ed (64usec, for injectors). The rest can be soft-PWM-ed, like 30 Hz for boost solenoid * and max 5 DPAK outputs can be IGBT HV (for ignition coil) '''4 push/pull outputs (e.g. stepper motor)''' '''Usage''' * For a V8, a CDI board would be used or injection would be 4 banks and 4 ign outputs for wasted spark. * For a I5, 5 inj + 5 ign + 0..3 outputs for other stuff (boostcontrol, etc...) ---- '''Case relevant issues''' It is very important to have '''IO buttons''' (how many?) on the box, having a keyboard in the car at all times is not practical. This also makes it possible to make a compact hand held tuner that can tune the ArmEfi and other VEMS frontier products. I guess it is the question of a free digital or analog input(s), and the rest is mechanical (case) issue. '''MMC slot ?''' * I think the MMC can live inside, without the possibility of removing (maybe soldered) * anyone insisting on removable MMC slot ? ---- '''This (armufo??) is a multi application board, it can be used for the following applications:''' With (external ?) display and buttons: * MAF replacement / MAF tuner. * WBo2 Lambda meter (? why would someone use this instead of a standalone? maybe this is ment ''logger box with internal WBO2 controller'' ) * Boost controller. * Exhaust temp meter. * Additional fuel controller. * Handheld tuner for ArmEfi and the other CAN enabled boards. I highly doubt that this would work. A logger and control board can be merged reasonably. A UI (user-interface) board cannot. (well, apexi makes profit from boost controllers made this way, but separated UI and controller is remarkably better). * Entry level engine management system with integrated display (how?) and user interface. ---- '''See also''' * VemsFrontier/Boards is the family where this belongs Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ... '''Bold''', ---- is horizontal ruler, <code> preformatted text... </code> See wiki editing HELP for tables and other formatting tips and tricks.
