1 Answers
An electronic control unit is mainly composed of an input circuit, analog-to-digital converter, microcomputer, and output circuit. The functions of the electronic control unit include: fault self-diagnosis and protection functions. When a system failure occurs, it can automatically record the fault code in RAM and take protective measures to read substitute programs from the aforementioned inherent programs to maintain engine operation. The electronic control unit continuously monitors various input data and the operating states of the vehicle, calculates the information sent by various sensors according to pre-designed programs, and after processing, sends the parameters to the relevant actuators to perform various predetermined control functions.
