WHICH DORLECO VCU IS RIGHT FOR YOUR APPLICATION?
Dorleco offers eight ToughCase VCU variants optimized for different vehicle classes and I/O densities. Two-wheelers and light EVs typically use TC48 or TC64. Heavy commercial vehicles, buses, and complex ADAS platforms are better served by TC154 or TC196 with higher I/O count and advanced communication options.
What is a Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) and what does Dorleco's ToughCase VCU do?
A vehicle control unit (VCU) is the supervisory "brain" of an electric or hybrid vehicle, coordinating powertrain, battery, thermal, and safety subsystems. Dorleco's ToughCase VCU lineup offers 8 programmable hardware variants ranging from 48 to 196 I/O channels — each supporting CAN bus communication, MATLAB/Simulink model-based software development, and over-the-air (OTA) reprogramming for field updates.
Is Dorleco's hardware compatible with MATLAB/Simulink?
Yes. All ToughCase VCU models are designed around model-based development using MATLAB/Simulink. Engineers can generate production-ready embedded C code from Simulink models and deploy it directly to ToughCase hardware. Dorleco's evCode, BodyCode, and ADASCode software libraries are also delivered as pre-validated Simulink model blocks, significantly reducing integration effort.
Does Dorleco offer ISO 26262 compliant products?
Dorleco's development processes are aligned with ISO 26262 functional safety standards and ASPICE automotive process requirements. The ToughCase VCU hardware and Dorleco's software libraries are designed to support functional safety documentation traceability. Customers undertaking formal ISO 26262 ASIL certification should contact Dorleco's engineering team to discuss the specific safety case requirements for their program.
Can Dorleco products support Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) charging?
Yes. Dorleco's Fast Charging Code supports the ISO 15118 communication standard, which is the foundation for Plug-and-Charge (PnC) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) bidirectional charging. The EVSE & V2G Simulator product also allows developers to test V2G communication protocols in a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) environment before deploying to real charging infrastructure, reducing certification cycle time.
