Precision Timing in Automotive ECU Systems Key Considerations

An electronic control system (ECU) is an embedded system that • Reliability and functional safety
controls one or more vehicle systems. Typical ECUs include engine, • High temperature
drivetrain or transmission control; heating, ventilation and air
• Low jitter
conditioning (HVAC) control; infotainment; telematics; and, in more
modern vehicles, all systems related to driver assistance and • Frequency stability and dF/dT
automated driving, from sensors to actuators.

The transition from distributed architecture in vehicles to domain architecture has a significant impact on timing.
With domain architecture, the use of higher-speed interfaces places a greater need on low jitter clocks. As ECU
complexity has increased, more clocks are needed. Functional safety is an integral part of today's automotive
systems. ASIL D is mandatory with most domain controllers and clocks play a significant role in supporting
functional safety requirements.

SiTime Advantages

SiTime devices offer the following benefits over quartz crystals, which are particularly important in automotive.
• 50x better reliability. Apart from reducing the amount of field failures, better reliability translates into a lower FIT
rate. This provides better hardware safety metrics in an FMEDA, the quantitative analysis required as part of a
functional safety assessment.
• 100x better resilience to shock, vibration and electromagnetic interference, due to the smaller size (0.4 x 0.4
mm) and lower mass of MEMS resonators compared to crystals. When not causing a permanent damage to the
crystal, shock and vibration can induce jitter in a crystal oscillator. As seen previously, jitter can be detrimental to
the bit error rate of a high-speed link. Better resilience of SiTime oscillators ensures a low error rate regardless of
operating conditions.
• Better frequency accuracy, 10x lower aging, and excellent stability over temperature – down to ±20 ppm (XO
devices) over -40 to +125°C and ±0.1 ppm (TCXO devices) over -40 to +105°C.
