Nice. Also as an FYI, have you seen the OLIMEXINO-STM32? It has several automotive friendly options, like the power regulator and CAN via screw terminal.
Congrats, and what's the next step?

Good to hear. I know there is a copy of Jon's work out there, which you appear to have found. However his official work can be found here https://code.google.com/p/mpc5xxx-engine-control/ I'd recommend studying that code.

Re: How about other dev boards?
Upon a quick look, I'd say it appears to be mostly there. I'll try to take a closer look. As noted there would be some need for software configuration changes. I don't see any real issues on a quick look.

Re: Free and Open ECU
Cool and welcome along. Jon is pro-using the o5e stuff, can I make a suggestion that you port the o5e code to chibios and make it run on an ARM? I'd like to see that happen, lots of work already done that can be reused.

Re: VR + knock module
On the IO board I already have a generic PGA the MAX9939 done in KICAD. I could trim it down to a proto board in a matter of minutes. I also have the MAX9926 VR circuit. Should I make this into a small proto board? Two channels of VR/HALL, one channel of generic PGA.

Re: Test car Ford Fiesta XR 2i 1990
OEM's can use far less protected IO as they have very strict control over the build process. This is why they don't need the protection over 5V and such, as they can guarantee that it will not exceed 5V by the MFG process. In the DIY world, it really sucks when you have one small brain fart and blow...

Re: I/O accuracy
I tend to think a bit more in terms of crank angle, with a desire to hold .1 degrees of crank angle. I also tend to want to see one edge of fuel and spark events being synced with that .1 crank angle. So I tend to look for 9kRPM /60S/M = 150R/S --> 1/150R/S = 6.66mS/R. Then 6.66mS/R /3600deg/R = .00...

Those circuit don't look bad to me. The op-amp VR sensor isn't my preference, I know the MAX chip has a well proven history, and allows for both VR and hall. It looks like this chip can do the same, but might require some filtering and such in software. I'd stay with the MAX chip because I'm comfort...

Re: A different approach.
Also with some luck, you'll only dump say 2mA and the MCU will consume say 3mA. if that happens, then all is good. However if the transient dumps say 10mA, and the MCU only consumes 3mA, that's bad, but better than blowing a pin directly. No problems with learning as you go. I've been there and I'm ...

Use a jim stim or your sound card for that kind of thing. Those already exist. However they have limitations as well, so be-ware the stimulators. I'm looking to capture real world signals to get real world errors to program against.

Re: A different approach.
Diodes to 5V rail will only protect after the MCU IO pin has gone beyond 5V which means the MCU pin exceeds the ratings, so fail. The diode really does want to go to the MCU +V pin, your saving grace is that it shouldn't ever need to conduct. You are correct the MOSFET should prevent these issues fr...
