A prototype of a FlexRay automotive communication protocol analysis tool has been constructed in cooperation with iSYSTEM Labs d. o. o. The tool is designed as and add-on to the iSYSTEM BlueBox embedded systems analyser and debugger, enabling time-correlation between traffic on the communication channel and the execution of code on an embedded central processing unit. The prototype was constructed using an Infineon TriCore TC399 microcontroller, which integrates the Bosch E-Ray FlexRay controller. The iSYSTEM BlueBox debugger and WinIDEA software were used for the writing and debugging of code, written in the C programming language.
