From a signal perspective, PCI-Engine acts as an engine supporting up to 8 cylinders. Add a second PCI-Engine and synchronize up to 16 cylinders. PCI-Engine integrates all the signal conditioning required to handle a broad range of engine configuration. Daughter boards are used to provide optional crank-synchronous knock signal generation and a second channel of variable reluctance cam and crank. The PCI-Engine Signal Conditioning board is tightly connected with the Compute Board across a low-noise interconnect. PCI-Engine provides a compact, configurable, high-perfor-mance solution for automotive engine simulation that gets you up and running quickly.

PCI-Engine is an innovative tool for the design, development and accep-tance testing of engine control units (ECU). PCI-Engine provides a com-plete electronic interface to the ECU including configurable cam and crank signal output, pulse-width modulated (PWM) output, PWM input, and fuel and spark measurement. PCI-Engine functionality is supported under The MathWorks’ xPC Target LabVIEW, C- callable libraries in Windows and in Applied Dynamics’ rtX real-time simulator.
